The gift shop bandit...

The bandit was named Robin. She was an aussie(Austrailian) about five feet tall at best. She was on a nine week holiday with a friend from work. They had planned this trip plus a coach tour of the Western U.S.A, and an Alaskan cruise since 2007. Every gift shop we were close to she made a significant purchase. She mailed the grand total of 4 boxes home of gift shop paraphenalia. It became a running joke that brought joy and love for her from the whole coach. She was hard to understand due to significant hearing and speech impairments but loved life intentionally and that was contagious. She also gave a speech today to thank the tour director and driver then proceeded to lead us all in "for he's a jolly good fellow "and so on to its duration.
