Some of Adelaide's sights

Today, we headed back into town as we had spent the night away from home. Akela took us with her parents to get their new car. So we spent some time sitting in a car dealership. On the flip side though, they were happy to take both myself and Mischief to the local monument. It was set up in the 1980s (so, kind of newish) and was in recognition some year of peace. The information is on the photos as Akela made sure she got the information in photos for those who will be getting Mischief after us. The photos are going to be put on Mischief’s usb that is travelling around with him.

 From here, we went home with Akela, but not before getting some photos of us looking at some art that has been placed on buildings around Adelaide. We think the art looked really good, so couldn’t miss the opportunity to get some shots of it.

 

It has certainly been a tiring two days already and we are certainly looking forward to getting some sleep. Akela’s explained we are going to be leaving really early for the Jamboree. So a few early nights are not going to go astray!!!

Mischeif's arrival

Today, Mischief arrived. It was certainly a great pleasure to meet him. We had our photo taken with him and started to fill him in on what to expect.

 This afternoon, Akela and I took Mischief into town on our way out to tea. We stopped in Victoria Square, and had photos taken of the big Christmas tree that goes up every year. From her, we jumped on a tram and headed out to the Christmas Display that is put on near the West End Brewery each year. Unfortunately, we couldn’t stay for it to be light up as it is each night, but the photos we got will definitely give an indication of what is on display.

 From here, we went out to tea with Akela. It was a really enjoyable evening and we were certainly well fed! It was a long day/night and we are certainly glad to be getting into bed for a well earned sleep.

 

Playford Christmas Pageant 2012

Today, I went with Akela to the Playford Christmas Pageant. I really enjoyed being able to watch a pageant, instead of being in it like last weekend. There were heaps of bands to watch and everyone really enjoyed themselves.

Salisbury Christmas Parade

Today, I took part in the Salisbury Christmas Pageant with the Mawson Lakes Scout Group. It was great to see so many people watching the Pageant. I really enjoyed myself as you can see from the photos.

Hoporee 14th October 2012

Today was another early start. Well, it was for Akela and her usual inability to sleep late on camp. The upside was she didn’t have to wait in a line for the showers!

There were more activities to be done and the Joeys continued to have fun. Although there were a number who were starting to look very tired around Lunch time. But I am aware a few were asleep on the trip home. Several didn’t even make it out of the gate of Woodhouse!

 Overall, it was a brilliant weekend. The Joeys and their parents had a great weekend, with a lot of smiles. It was certainly definitely worthwhile and I am sure that the next one in two years time will be just as enjoyable.
