Hi David,
Thanks for your kind words. It is great to see BJ returning to his happy smiling self again and we did manage to enjoy the last part of our holiday. Thankfully Alice Springs Hospital was great, not that I’d ever like to return.

Hi Rebecca,

It was quite the experience. I’m so pleased you had great care when you need the emergency for your young ones and you are right, it is often quicker the smaller the town.

The pics of your beautiful daughter with her big brother definitely had me tearing up! We’ve only ever once been to emergency when travelling with our boys and it was in a small country town. We were seen to and fixed up so quickly by the lovely staff – in Sydney we would have been waiting for hours for treatment for sure.

Hi Sonja,

Thanks for your lovely message. We went to Uluru first so we had the pleasure of touring around there. Obviously with BJ not drinking it was not ideal but we tried to make the most of the time. Take care and thanks. It is lovely to know we are missed when not around.

Julie

So true Seana. We’ve had a unique experience in Central Australia but next time we are happy to go the road more travelled!

Hope to see you soon.

Thanks. Julie

You will have seen parts of Oz and met people you might never have… but how stressful.

We are so so lucky to have fantastic healthcare in this country, and I am truly heartened to hear you were all taken good care of.

And lets hope the next trip is a LOT less eventful.

Hugs from our family to yours xxxxxx
