If she can she should head out west and see Uluru and the red center. Don't waste time going to a city that's just like every other city you'll find in the world. See the real heart of Australia. That's my recommendation.

Sounds like with the schedule she has and where she's located, she might be ready for a city by then.

Dumb parent brag, but I am weirdly proud... Minifobette stood up too quickly from her bottom locker, and the door above was still open. Corner of the metal door caught her right on her scalp, leaving a big old bloody gash.

Brag #1: She got three staples at the emergency clinic without anesthesia, and barely whimpered. She's a champ.

Brag #2: I finally have a kid who has had some form of big wound closure. Like I said, dumb, but I'd had stitches 4 times by the time I was her age, and was starting to doubt that either one of these kids was related to me. Then again, she did fracture her spine a couple years ago, and I've never broken a bone, so she's got that on me.

I have never had stitches except surgical, nor have I broken a bone except when I punched out VZ for messing with my girlfriend.
