I had applied for one house sit in Adelaide, but missed out for some reason. However another one came up, and when I left Burra my destination was Unley to meet the family and see if I was happy with the opportunity.
Unley is not well known to me - my mother did go to high school there, and I am vaguely familiar with some of the trendy shopping in the region. It is a very old area of Adelaide, with a high number of wonderful old stone homes, and now a collection of modern ones, in narrow streets, with huge old trees. Many of the streets are tree lined, and I look forward to walks with my camera in hand. There is a small park near the house sit house.
The house is in a lovely old home, a short walking distance from a huge shopping centre with Coles and Woolworths, a Cheese Monger, delicatessen, other food shops and a host of fashion and other stores. I was early to my appointment so I went for a wander around the shops. I look forward to spending a few dollars there!
I met the family, mother, father and twin boys, and the animals. There are two dogs, two cats, about 7 chooks and a chicken, a rabbit, and a lizard! I think it will be rather fun!!! I move in on Monday 17th. Shall be interesting with all my new animal friends.
