6/13/2015

This was a Cann Valley week. I started the week with the queen's birthday (the opposite of Independence Day) on Monday and then went out to East gippsland on Friday so realistically I only had a 3 day work week, which was great. To make things even better I did the escape room on Tuesday with Damo and 2 other friends. If you are unfamiliar the escape room is a thing where you get "locked" in a room for an hour and have to solve a series of clues in order to escape. There was a 70 minute time limit and we finished in 50 because we're awesome! 
It wasn't a long trip out to Cann river because I have a birthday party in Saturday night in Melbourne for my friend Dan. 
I took the train up on Thursday night and did my weird car rental thing. I convinced Damien to come with me because he is very nice. Before our trip he bought the ticket to ride expansion pack. After we got out of the city we were able to spread out and play ticket to ride on the floor of the train. So awesome! The drive into Cann river was quick compared to normal. 
I had 6 patients on Friday so we were done by 2pm. I took Damien to point hicks lighthouse because he has never been before. 
We also did the Thurra river sand dunes that are even more beautiful in person. 

On our jog out to the dunes we got inches away from a kookaburra that was happy to fly along with us for a few feet. 

We spent longer than we had meant to playing on the dunes and the sun was setting as we ran back. 

Back at the bush nursing centre we spent the evening eating pasta and playing ticket to ride. 
Saturday morning we were up early to get the car back to bairnsdale. We made it back early enough to stop at the orchard before dropping the car off. Then we grabbed breakfast at little Alice cafe(my favourite) before just barely making our train back to the party. We were going to play another ticket to ride game but the train filled up quickly so we stuck to iPad version, blogging, and napping for the trip back.
