		Not for the claustrophobic: you can go on a one-way (front-to-back) tour through the submarine starting at the torpedo-room and winding your way back out the submarine's "other end" just aft of (good thing this isn't in German...) the engine rooms (both electric and diesel).

		The HMAS Onslow submarine was so tiny I wonder how they could fit people in there!
		But it was really fun being in there^^ And the Maritime Museum tour guide even complimented on how good we were compared to the rest of the selective and private schools they've had over the years.

		Danielle and I set off for central Sydney, stopping on the way to borrow a street directory from her mum.
		The submarine HMAS Onslow was particularly interesting - I couldn’t imagine having to live in the cramped conditions of a sub for months at a time - I don’t think I could stand it.
		Then we strolled back to the museum, and walked up and down and around the HMAS Vampire, sister ship to the doomed Voyager.

		The highlight of the museum is the HMAS Onslow, a submarine that actually served in the Royal Australian Navy until 1999.
		To see where the ship is piloted from makes me wonder how the captain could possibly use all the dials, screens, wheels and gauges to navigate an 89.90 meter ship around the ocean.
		A visit to the HMAS Onslow brings a sense of wonder and a newfound appreciation for sailors.
