summary for the last 3 days

sorry i haven't been posting, it's nearly impossible to get a steady internet connection here, and if i use a PC then i have to pay for the time, and it's so slow i don't even get done a post in time!! haha.
anyways I wanted to write in more detail but that will have to come later.... right now here's a short version of what I've been doing the last 3 days.

Day 1 of OZintro: our group arrived early in the morning and we met up with them around 10 or 11 and then at 1230 the group leader picked us up and we went downtown sydney and saw the opera house and bridge and all that. then we went on a jetboat around the sydney harbour for what was probably about an hour. it was soo much fun... really fast and exciting....but then i broke my own pair of sandals (not the pink ones for mom and gramma wondering) so that was annoying.

Day 2: We went to the Darling Harbour- which is where Brooke had taken Ash and I Sunday night .... and to the Sydney Aquarium, we had to take a boat to get there and that's where most of my pretty pictures are from. It was finally a beautiful day then, with sunshine instead of rain. We also sorted our bank cards and the people from the UK got their medicare. Then we went out at night dancing at a local bar, which was a lot of fun.

Day 3: Yesterday we went surfing!! It was exhausting but so much fun. I didn't try standing up on it in the water because by then I was so tired I figured I'd probably just fall off even on solid ground. We had to learn on the sand first. But it was fun and we wore wetsuits so that was also kind of hilarious. Then they did a BBQ on the beach....this beach was 2 hours north of Sydney because its winter and that's where you have to go to surf in the winter.... so it was a lot of driving yesterday and we had to get up quite early. When we got back most of us were still very drained from the day so we just spent time hanging out in rooms and trying to put up pictures from our trip on facebook....nearly impossible....


So that's that. today were either going to the zoo or snorkeling at a different beach, depending on the weather and people's choice....I'll update as soon as I possible can, please be patient with me.


love ~M~
