Rock Pool

Along the strand, there is also a rock pool. Where the water is filtered into, so it is safe to swim in, or so we hope! This is my favorite place to go to for the day. One, its free! Two, its close to all the chops and restaurants in town. And the view of the ocean is beautiful from here.

So I officially have made it through my first week of classes in Australia! (Since I do not have classes on friday!!) So far they are going pretty good, and I think I know my way around the campus pretty good now! It sucks walking to class in the morning though, because it is sooo hot and sunny in the morning, and I have a pretty good walk to anywhere on campus.. But hey, its a good workout right!?

I need to go out on a mission to find a job! Theres a career center on campus so I am going to go talk to them and hopefully they can point me in the direction of a good daycare that is pretty close to campus. Apparently minimum wage is $17 here, so that is very exciting!! I could use that back home. Sure explains why everything is sooo expensive here, because the guys working at Macca's(McDonald's) are making bank!

This where we walked to, along the Ross River. It was about a hour hike, but it was worth it! I climbed up a tree and swung from a rope into the river. I am prettyyy sure there are crocs in there, but I tried not the think about that!
