Road Trip # 1

So today is Sunday and we have had another amazing week. We began school and got situated in our classes. Up until Oct 11th I will have four day weekends, but once it’s Oct 11th I begin my Thursday class which is… SIX hours long…yeah that’s gonna be a fun one!!!! Yesterday we went North about 45 miles to what we thought were natural hot springs but it ended up being a warm swimming pool with tons of small screaming kids. Samantha and I road with our new friends Lena and Juliane who are from Germany. They bought a car a few days ago, but they are used to the same side of the road as America…needless to say we held on to the “oh shit handle” for the majority of the ride. She actually did very well…it’s so confusing and the traffic here is wild. Saw some sheep on the way...I can't wait to go to Sheep World and hold the baby lambs!!! :) We ended up hanging at the beach for a few hours, which was so nice. It is sooooo pretty here!!! We collected some shells and I recieved one as a gift. (From a cute boy) Turns out it had a rotting snail inside and it smelled like royal butt!!! Some gift :)

After the beach we stopped and ate some yummy fish and chips and went home. Today it is raining, so we are going to go see the Simpson’s movie….”Would you like to buy a slurpy?” (that’s for you Ashley)

Here are some more pictures that Samantha has taken
