One of our earliest tours was at the Convict Barracks that housed the earliest settlers to Australia. It was sobering to get the glimpse of how the people who built this country lived.
The hammock picture showed how they slept during the earliest days. (And I am complaining about the queen sized bed in the apartment?) There was a chance for dress-up, and Ali was a little uncertain about it. There was a listing of the early convicts housed in the barracks. Nathan's great, great, great, great Uncle Thomas was among them! :) Then, the kids got to see a mummy-fied rat followed by a live one. It was SUCH fun!
