Fire Station visit


Cam and Nev and I checked out the Adelaide main fire station in the center of town. Every fire station has a pup, this one was a bit larger than life!
 
The station is huge and has lots of trucks. What I didn't realize is that it also had a training facility out the back. Check out the tower in the background. They rescued people from its upper stories in a demo during this open house.
 
Nevlin and I and Cam all found ourselves in a high-tech vehicle that coordinates all the firefighters attacking a large fire. Smart boards, flashlights as big as Nev's head, and computers a plenty were spread in the vehicle. 

I've never been in a fire truck, and neither has Nevlin for that matter, so we hopped on board as if we were real fire fighters. Both of us were excited and happy. Lucky for the firefighters, I noticed they had an updated street directory.

We thought Nevlin would have a great time checking out all the trucks, and guys, and demos. He really enjoyed hanging out with all of that, and dressed for the occasion in red.
