Lazy Morning


Hey everyone! I’m so excited for our travel break! I won’t be able to email while I’m gone, so there won’t be any posts for about a week. We’re leaving Tuesday morning for Brisbane and will spend about a day and a half there before flying up to Cairns. While in Cairns we will be staying on a boat for two days, snorkeling the Great Barrier Reef and Ella and I are also doing a crocodile boat tour on one of the days. Other than that we mostly plan to explore, shop and relax on the beaches. So exciting! Last night, after my post, we went out to dinner and then to the firework show at Federation Square. The show was pretty cool, but it’ll really didn’t have anything on the Fourth of July. We walked around for hours, looking for a dance club and by the time we were relatively close to one, I was exhausted and opted to go home. This morning, everyone slept in and when we did finally get up, we went out for breakfast. I had French toast and bacon. I have to say, bacon is far more delicious here, but we have better hash browns. We then headed over to the Queen Victoria Market for a little while, just to investigate. It was pretty cool, and all of the food smelled delicious.
Today, most everyone is scrambling to finish their papers and biology presentations, I’ve been printing and making sure everyone has flight papers and things we will need. Hannah and Ella have dubbed me “Mom” on the trip. Not that I mind, I like knowing that they appreciate my help :)
Tonight we are going to the Eureka Tower, the tallest building in Melbourne and possibly to a rooftop bar.
Anyway! Gotta go,
Love H.
