My first week in Australia has flown by quickly! We've been golfing, going to movies, beach, and hanging out with Heath's friends and family. Yes, I played 9 holes, Dad! You would be so proud!
Although I miss home, I like living here so far. I'm adapting to their cultural differences, such as their lingo, food, currency, etc. I've also started to follow tennis and cricket!
We've gone to a couple different beaches since I've been here; Burleigh Heads, Broad Beach, and Southbank. They are BEAUTIFUL! The sand is so soft and the beaches are so clean. Next week we'll be at the beach everyday because we're going on a 7 day cruise to the Great Barrier Reef and a few other tropical destinations. There are a lot of Heath's friends from YSA going so it should be a good time!
