News from the farm
As Carina so kindly pointed out I've been "working" in Newham for a while. I've been treated more like a honoured guest than one of the slaves I was prepared to be. I have to tell you I've been enjoying my stay in here so much and this experience exceeded my best hopes thousand times. I've spent most of my time with Viki and been trying to help with the boarding kennel as best as I van. I mean I love the animals but I'm sure someone else might be for a better help. Well, I've enjoyed my stay and as most of you know I'm not normaly talking too much but I've been trying to speak with Viki and Barry as much as possible. Thanks to the cost cuts in my company my english has been rusty for some time and it's been a real work for me to twist my tong for the english.Anyway, this place I'm living in is blessed by a wildlife I've never seen before. I mean where ever you go you'll see kengurus. If I want to see parots I just open the front door and take a look at the close by trees. the small spiked kidneys (or how ever you spell those) wonder all over in here and then there are the spiders and other creepy crawlers all over. Then there are the lovely dogs and all other animals I've must have mentioned already. I think I've never been so happy as I'm in here but then again I feel so lost with the lovely people I'm living with. They've been so kind to me that I feel almost shamed to not be able to fulfill my tasks any better. They show me all the places around here and introduse me to other people all the time and suddenly I feel like a young child again. I'm not sure if you can understand my feelings but I feel being able to live my childhood memories all over. I know, I wasn't in Oz when I was young but the feeling is the same as when I stayed in my godmothers farm. That's something I'll never forget and I don't have the words to thank Viki and Barry as I should.
Tomorrow we're going to one of the wild life sanctuaries where I can see crocodiles and such. That should be a blast! For the evening we've planned to go to one of the wineries to listen some local music and enjoy the local products.
I hope the pictures I've taken will give any credit to the places andf things I've seen but I still have to wait until I get to Mel or Adelaide to upload them to the net.

Näin sunnuntai-aamun kunniaksi lueskelin juttuasi. Olipa mahtavaa kuulla maatilan elämästä ja viihtymisestäsi siellä. Odottelen innolla kuvia. Äiti-Pirjo
