Warning: This post is about to make you feel very old.

Think for a moment where you watched the opening ceremony of the Sydney Olympics.

Well, one of the busses from those games is now on display at the Sydney Bus Museum.

But wait, why is a bus from the Sydney Olympics doing in a transport museum?

Well, because the 2000 Olympics were held almost a quarter of a century ago.

I did warn you this post would make you feel old.

My parents bought one of the Commodores that were driving VIPs around the games. A Special Olympic edition Commodore. They sold that car over 10 years ago. In fact the car they replaced the Commodore with has also since been sold.
