from a laptop overseas......

it's sunday night here in cleo's once again and i haven't updated in a while and so i thought i would say hello. i haven't been quite as busy as my last update, but here it goes!

the week we got back from broome was a whirlwind there was so much going on and so much homework that had to be done. the sunday we got back from broome we went on an archaeological dig with out history professor/archeologist. it was an amazing time and i learned so much from the trip! that same day was ANZAC day which stands for australian and new zealand army corp. and it is huge in australia to celebrate the day! its like memorial day but on a much larger scale. we woke up that sunday at 4:30 in the morning and headed off to monument hill to join in the sunrise dawn services. it was amazing to see how many people were there to recognize this amazing event and day. but we got back around 7 and slept and for an hour before we had to meet out professor for the dig. it was quite a long day. but the dig was amazing and i enjoyed every minute of it.

the following was much the same as every week has been. busy and it flew by! the weeks go by so FAST!! it amazes me to wake up on monday morning and before i know it, its friday night. and so it was another friday night and the next morning we woke up for surf camp. we got up walked to the train station got on the bus and 2 and a half hours later we were surfing in the indian ocean. it was amazing. i think i was successfully the only one who didn't stand up but thats okay, because i had so much fun and loved every second of it! we were so exhausted and it was only lunch time! another 2.5 hours of surfing left! it was such a great day but by the end of it i was ready to pass out. we got home and made dinner and went to san churro had the best churros EVER, came home and passed out. it was a great day.

today was sunday and it was a very relaxing one. woke up cleaned my room we got mexican food and hot chocolate and then came home and caught up on some tv. and so the week begins again....48 days till home. its going by so quickly.
talk to you all soon! miss you!
