I am sure this would have to be the most popular teaching job of all. The computers have mute buttons for when you need a bit of peace and quiet!! It was very interesting, and even though the kids are on school holidays, we saw a pre-recorded lesson and also a short video on how it started and the technological improvements that have got it to how it is today, 60 years on.
We drove up ANZAC hill for a view over Alice Springs. It was also a great way to see the Ranges and the Gap.
We then restocked for the next leg of our journey before heading out to try and find Ben and co who were doing a muster. We drove past Jessie and Emily's Gaps, and also some other of Undoolya's yards that Troy had visited on a previous visit.
We found Ben and the family at some of their other yards, tagging and sorting some of their cattle. Troy and the kids jumped in to lend a hand. Troy looked right at home!!
They had the process down to a fine art, and it was quite enjoyable to watch, a lot harder actually doing the work, I'm sure!! We stayed here until all cows were counted and tagged before heading back to camp, a little dustier than when we started, and had an early night!
