One new German girl

I am Franzi and I just arrived some days ago for my 6-month-stay in Cunnamulla at Out the Back Australia. Although I have just arrived I had already the opportunity to see a lot of the typical Outback in Australia. I went on tour the first week with two very nice sisters from the Netherlands. We had a lot of fun and we really enjoyed our impressions of the outback. We went to a Roderick Taylors farm where we flew in his plane and drove a Quad. That was really an adventure! Besides we went to Charlotte Plains to see another real Outback farm. Unfortunately we had to say goodbye to our friends from the Netherlands, but we all hope that we will see us one day again!

Halloween Party

The Weekend is over and this time, we really have to tell you something.

We went to the best Halloween Party you can imagine. It was on Charlotte Plains, 50kms out of Cunnamulla.

The lovely hosts Claire, Robert and Robyn Russell prepared eveything and the highlight was absolutely the SPOOKY HOUSE for the kids where they got their sweets in the end after they could be scared for a while like you're supposed to be on Halloween.

Everybody was dressed in the scariest but also funniest costumes and it was amazing that all of the guests had at least one thing which was Halloween-like.

The party started at 5pm with a lot of vegetable sticks, bread and biscuits and a variety of delicious dips, as well as fruit or cheese platters. The main course was delicious as well with a lot of meat. Pork, Beef, Lamb - everybody found something he was happy with. Besides there was a huge pot of salad with fetta. Afterwards you could enjoy wonderful cupcakes, fruit salad, pudding and brownies. It was amazing and we were eating all night long :)

It was nice to get to know new people. In the end there were 28 adults and 14 children running around and having fun.

We had one of the best evenings you can imagine and we really want to thank the lovely hosts for the best Halloween Party ever!
