Holiday adventures


New Years Eve - Melbourne  Fire on the 29th floor of my daughter's apartment building in Melbourne! We had to gather ourselves, passports, money and dog and descend via the fire stairs from the 36th floor in 38 degree heat! We had to stay out of the building for 4 hours, but it was fascinating to watch a well organised Metropolitan Fire Service in operation.  I remain in awe of the fitness, professionalism and efficiency of the fire fighters. 

I have included some pictures of the fire fighting units and will share them with the children tomorrow.  Please talk to your children about some of the exciting experiences they have away from school so they will be ready to share them at mat time. 




AND THEN  Home in time to see the New Year's Fireworks from the balcony!
