life in Tribes

Had to hurry home from work on Thursday to get to the school for Presentation 2014.
I am so pleased to be associated with this school via my maths tutoring.  It was a  great show not unlike the Olympics Opening Ceremony and possibly as long.  I left at 9.30pm because Steve was waiting so we could have dinner together.  Friday night was The Parade.  What fun!!!
I'd never seen so many people on the Vicary Street, the main drag.  I have some dissatisfactions with Triabunna and one of them is you never see people on the streets.  Except on Christmas Parade night.
Sis was a little miffed that Evie, the Ambulance Dog, got to participate.
From Vicary Street they followed the Esplanade and then re-emerged in our street.
And passed our house.
 Then back to Vicary Street and the paddock at the back of the pub for carols and concert.
Though Evie looked as though she'd be happy to stay at our place for a while.

  1. How magical, a Christmas Pageant along your Street! You are soooo lucky. As everyone in Triabunna appeared to be in the Pageant, who was watching? Did you ever watch the John Martins' Christmas Pageant and ride on the HUGE rocking horses in their Magic Cave?

  2. You are totally right - just about the whole population is in the pageant - with just a sprinkling watching. And I don't think I ever got to go on the rocking horse, though I've watched a few John Martin pageants in my time.
