Oh, my. What an adventure so far. I wish I could've been undating more but this is the first time I've had internet for an extended period of time! So I will update about the trip so far!
Sydney: Incredible. Seriously, I loved it. It reminded me a lot of NYC. The first day we got there checked into our hotel which was across the street from this cute little park! So my roommate and I went to get coffee and drink it at the park. We went on a harbor cruise that day. It was so so neat! We got to see all the multi-million dollar houses that surrounded the harbor. We also got to see the famous bridge and the Opera house. SO neat. After a long day of traveling we went to dinner and all were in bed by 8:30. A lot of the trip included musuem tours. Not my favorite. Although some were extremely interesting. Some of my favorites were the Hyde Park Barracks and the St. Mary's Cathedral. St. Mary's was one of my favorite things we've done so far. The buliding is incredible! So so beautiful. We went to see Wicked on the second night we were there! It was really great! We toured more museums. One night a group of us saw The Johnny Cash Story at the Opera house. So neat! It was really cool to get to see a play in such a famous theatre! We took a tour of it earlier that day also. We got a free day where we shopped and explored the city. We did so so much in such a short period of time. It was such a cool experience to see the things I saw.
Outback: Well, that was quite an adventure! When we arrived we were told that we would be living in dorm style rooms. I had no idea how true that statement would be. There were four girls to a room about 10 by 10 with two sets of bunk beds and very little room to move. It was very interesting! The showers were seperate from the rooms. The first night we had zero hot water. And I mean ZERO. We learned a lot about the native aboriginal people and how they got there. We got to see Ayers Rock! SO neat. It was such a neat experience. The restaurant at the hotel where we stayed was a grill it yourself place. Very fun! :) The Outback was such a great experience that I am so glad I got to experience it!
Seeing all these amazing things just reassures me about how great the God I worship is! He created all that and still chose me!
I am officially in Brisbane with a constant internet connection so blog updates will be a lot more regular :) I'll keep you updated. Pictures will come soon... I have taken 750ish so far! :)
