Albany

On Thursday we went for the day to Albany. First on the agenda was a visit to the new National Anzac Centre on Mt Clarence with fantastic views over King George's Sound, where the convoys assembled to set off for Gallipoli.

Each person is given a card with an individual to follow. I received a Turkish Officer, but went back and asked for a nurse instead. The sisters suffered great hardships during a very cold winter on the island of Lesbos, with not enough water to wash themselves or their patients. There was a lot to take in, but JL had no patience with all the electronics!
