Yesterday, a couple hours after I went to the post office, my grandma calls and excitedly tells me that after months of trying to get me in The Post Hospital, it's finally going to happen. You might remember this post featuring the outside of it. The military owned it and the barracks surrounding ever since it was built, but recently they have left the area and the historic buildings are left to the National Parks and National Trust. So  now there's actually a future for this building instead of just being forgotten! 

Of course I was ecstatic that my cousin and I would get to live out the weird little childhood dream of going inside the building, and then I realized I had sent out my nurses uniform and cap just hours earlier to the other side of the world, as it was a part of my shop my closet post. 

What are the chances?

But

I had another nurses uniform, so it was all good. Because everyone has a spare vintage nurses uniform right?

Right. 

So I hope you enjoy these pics, I'll be posting more of exploring the abandoned barracks, stay tuned!
