Kelsey's Journal entry


This is a little out of order - but the internet is so slow. We enjoyed a super cruise on the Sydney Harbor tonight - ended with fireworks and a pretty awesome disco dance!
Tomorrow we go surfing at Bondi Beach -- burrr, but we have wet suits!
Hope to get to China town for some bargain shopping, after seeing the Opera House. Love to all
PS - Kyle has only lost one hat...All are well - but tired!

g'd Day from Australia

G'Day Australia






WE make it to the airport for our early morning flight, and arive in Australia. Our first day we head to the stadium - site of the 2000 Sydney Olympics - we tour the stadium, used for 4 sports including Rugby which draws 80.000 to a game! We get a lesson in Cricket on the grounds - it's almost as fun as cornhole!

Frosty Morning at Homestay, off to Auckland

We leave our homestays on a frosty morning, say goodbye to the farms and head to the city of Auckland for a final day in New Zealand. the tower is the largest in the Southern Hemisphere. the West Coast is known for beautiful beaches and great surf for fishing and board surfing.
