Tracy Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 Today was the first time my daughter caught the school bus AND sorted herself out at the interchange AND never got lost AND was 100% ok!!! It's a whole 40minute trip covering just on 10kms and she gets the service for free.But guess what happened when she got home?Her new key didn't work and she had to break in to get in! I must admit I grilled her about who was on the bus, what happened, exactly where did it go, what did the driver look like - you know; typical Crime Stop questions!There is hope for me yet!

Just B Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 Tracy,Could you do us a favour and post some photos of Alice Springs. At the moment I have a backward image of the town in my head (flat desret with a couple of corrigated shacks). and I need to see what you are seeing.RegardsK&BPS - I think it's good to keep up your guard no matter where in the world you are. Just hide it from the locals or they may certify you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracy Posted October 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 I haven't got many really, but I could make a plan.I've made enough noise about it being a good place - maybe Alice Springs Tourism will pay me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just B Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 Tracy,I would appreciate it - personally we are heading for Adelaide. but a really would like to take a look at your new home town. Perhaps you need to hook up with the tourism board and tell them you will draw visitors in.RegardsK&B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tracy Posted October 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2007 Des!That pic is priceless!But I think I may be seeing a few like it when I go to Ningaloo in December!I sadly missed the Henley-on-Todd Regatta this year, but make no mistake I will be in it next year! We have a similar event during the Fish River Canoe Marathon in Tarkastad - but that one thankfully never gets put on TV! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just B Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 Tracy,OK! I managed to find some photos on the net of Alice Springs and it's much bigger than I had ever imagined. It even looks like Howick would be a far cry from Alice.RegardsK&B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Parsons Family Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 Good to hear that you are letting your daughter do things on her own, scary but necessary .Won't be long and the SA paranoia will dissipate but you always be a bit more "watchful" than others CheersGaille Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
