The welcome guide had been provided on the THS website as well. The brightly decorated notebook is absolutely filled with information;
Names of neighbors and numbers and how they can help in great detail including who, what etc in case of bush fires!
Bus map, train schedule and opal card (bus pass, but they left their car too)
Library card
Taxi info
Local trails
AND
sack full of local yummies.
Death by chocolate?
It will be a joyful death.
I invite the sitter to arrive the night before we leave and cook them a dinner with all the trimmings. Very often they will prepare something for us before they leave!
