N: Robinson River community


N: Mum’s cousin and law have been living in the community for 2 terms on a Carey exchange program. Ahhhhh air conditioning. Went for a walk around the community to see the school, the shop and the river, on the walk we also met some of the locals. We planned to stay only one night but ended up staying two. In the night a pregnant lady who had gone into labour knocked on our door because Lyn was running the clinic, nobody heard so she went to the public phone and called the house I woke and john came answered the phone apologized then Lyn rushed out. The next day we watched a plane came to extract the lady to more advanced medical services but it was too late so the delivery was performed at the clinic. While the delivery was happening Georgie and I went to school, at play lunch I played rugby and did the same at lunch.When we left we tired to cut some kms off our trip by taking a rugged back road but we ended up having to back track because it was to rugged.
