Answers To Your Question!

G'Day Mates!

It sounds like rollerskating was a blast! Sorry to hear about the cold weather... we'll do our best to bring some heat back with us! You all asked if we were trying anything new here in Australia. To answer your question, I'll share some pictures!

Here is me at my surf lesson! You mentioned that when you all were rollerskating you fell a lot and just had to keep getting up and trying again. We had a very similar experience surfing! If you look at the picture above, that's me wiping out! It was so difficult to get the hang of surfing, but once I did, it was a blast!!

This is Courtney, Me, and Ali J. listening to our surf instructor on how to push ourselves up when the wave hit us. We practiced for about 20 minutes on land before we hit the water. Practice makes perfect!


This is me snorkeling on the Great Barrier Reef for the first time. I was a little nervous to be around so many different fish, but it turned out to be a great experience and another first for me!


My FIRST time feeding a Kangaroo!! I was so excited, but again... a little nervous. He slobbered all over my hand, but he was so cute and friendly!

This is the "momma" kangaroo. If you look closely, she has a "Joey" in her pouch! You should be able to see his legs and tail. This was my first time seeing a baby kangaroo!!

Everything we have done so far has been absolutely amazing, and we've all had a lot of "firsts" on this trip. Unfortunately, we can only share five pictures at a time, or I would share EVERYTHING we've done. I hope you all are interested in what we're studying here, and when you get to college, I hope you travel around the world too!!

Have a great day, guys!
