Parkes, the dish.

Since we were passing by I decided to take a detour and check it out.

An usual globe with Parkes right on top was in the lovely garden area in front of the centre, here Olivia has her thumb right near what is supposed to be her native Philippines.

One of the workers kindly offered to take a snap of us while we were outside.

What a lovely sign, actually inviting us to take photos, quite a change.

I think this console was shown in the film "The Dish"

The lunar lander on the right was the old LNB that was upgraded some time back, but not before they did the moon landing stuff.

Olivia loves a selfie, she even caught Jimmy in this one.

This teddy bear is a traveller. The teacher taking its picture must have a happy class somewhere.
