Today was a day of firsts

I went to my first Australian church service, sat through my first sermon preached by a woman, saw Kangaroo burgers for the first time, went to my first Australian BBQ (which I was a co-bbq-er), swam outside for the first time ever in February, and subsequently got my first Australian sunburn, which seems to be funny to some of the folks here…not so much to me I even became the reason for a little notice on the bulletin board..check it out.   Today was a good day though in-spite of my fried skin. During dinner, the administrator made an announcement about an "unnamed foreign student" who should learn about the magic of sunscreen.
 

                On a side note- I’m fairly certain my hair dryer catches fire every now and then because of the voltage differences. That might be a problem someday…

                Starting to make plans to go to cradle mountain to camp and climb for a few days this coming weekend, I sure hope the weather holds out for that. Also starting to learn about the best spots to surf around can’t wait. Anyway, that about sums up my day, and tomorrow is the start of orientation week, so I should go pass out somewhere….
