Sydney's got water again!

The big rain event of a few weeks ago worked wonders on Sydney's water supply. We've gone from 40% and falling dangerously, to over 80% and time to relax about it again.
 
So off to Warragamba Dam, and Lake Burragorang reservoir, the other day.

The visitor centre is open most days, and on weekends you can walk over the dam.

I think I mentioned once before about how Sydney's big reservoir compares with that of my home town, Birmingham England. They're very proud of their Elan Valley reservoir and dam there. Well it turns out that Sydney's Lake Burragorang is actually 40 times bigger than Birmingham's.
