Day 66 – Katherine Outback Experience

It was another cold start to a hot day, which is what keeps throwing everyone and means the girls are still snotty and coughing… I was hoping we would escape this winter sicknes issue with our travels, to be honest! 

Today I was at the RAAF Base at Tindal for a training session and presentation for a few hours whilst Chris had the girls. They were lucky enough to get a video call from a group of their friends at GPAC, which was so special to them!

Then they dropped me off and headed to grab a few supplies and bits and pieces for the car. I loved the vibe at the RAAF base and was really impressed by how even the mix of female to male recruits was. We had some more legendary lifesavers sign up ready to give hope to those living with blood cancers and blood disorders. Honestly, my job is so fulfilling!

Back to real life, Chris and the girls picked me up and we headed to the Katherine Outback Experience. It was a show highlighting Outback life – from breaking in horses, to dog training to general farm life and all the animals it brings. 

It was fascinating to watch a horse who had only been ridden once before being broken in and all the steps involved.

The girls loved meeting all the friendly goats, cows, donkeys, dogs etc

Tom Curtain, the owner is also a country singer and busted out quite a few songs, which Scarly absolutely loved dancing to. She really feels every beat with her whole body, I love watching her dance!

Back at camp it was a quick dip in the pool and an easy dinner before state of origin antics disappointed the masses.
