So far we have been looking at everything BIG but today we have been looking at things that are so OLD! First, we saw a cart that sold things to people living in the outback. Outback people had animals such as cows, horses, sheep, camels and much, much more.
They lived in house made of wood (not quite like the three little pigs) which had hard chairs, an open fire place for cooking their food, hard wooden beds which had no mattress, some glass bottles and it was very dirty and dusty. I don’t think I would like to live in it at all. It makes me thank God for all that I have.
I saw lots of maps – my favourite was one where you could push a button and it would light up where the explorer went throughout Australia. It was COOL!
Life was hard because they had to work on the land from when the sun came up, until the sun went down. They had problems with mice, locusts, drought, floods and rabbits.
I liked this place a lot.
Dear Lauren,
ReplyDeleteI hope you are having fun. Did you have fun at Seaworld? What were some of the animals you saw?
Today I am going to a birthday party. Abigail will be one year old.
Hope to write back soon.
Love from Caitlin
Hey Lauren. An old guy at our church used to be a stockman and he has some leather-work on display at the Stockman's Hall Of Fame. Pretty cool! Have a great time.
