Well. I still haven't mustered up the courage to try Vegamite, probably tomorrie. I taught my first class yesterday. It went really well. I botched up the first session ( I had two). The posterior part of the arch taping slide off the ankle. It was slightly embarassing, but I rolled with it and saved face, haha. They caught on very quickly. It was nice to be busy with people instead of an office. I am hoping that once the final's are over I can make friends with the older students and have something to do in the evenings or weekends.

Hello everyone! Well what a great few days we have just had. We flew from Cairns to Yulara, which is the airport right next to Ayers Rock (Uluru). It was so cool seeing it from the air as we flew in! Yulara is basically a big resort with 5 different hotels and its all owned by one company, Vogages, and the nearest town is a few 100 Km's away so have the monopoly over everything remotly near Uluru! We stayed in the one budget hotel/hostel called Pioneer Outback Hotel. As soon as we landed to the 30 degree heat we got [View Full Entry]

Well, it is time to catch you up to date on our travels! We have been having a lot of fun and covering much ground but getting to writing and finding internet less. Our last blog brought us to the North Island, and this one covers April 23 to 28th up the East Coast from Wellington. Our first stop along the way was a quick one to take a picture of the Tui brewery, Tui was happy to see a flag bearing his name! We passed some wind farms along our way to historic Taumatashakatangihangakoauauotamateaturipukakapikimaungahoronukopokaiwhenuakitanatahu, the longest place name in the [View Full Entry]

Yesterday I went to the Sanctuary. What an amazing experience. This koala sanctuary hosts 130 koalas and is the biggest in all of Australia. It's located a little ways out of Brisbane and is a very natural setting. They have a kangaroo/wallaby reserve where the kangaroos and wallabies roam free and you can walk in and chill with them. Since they are pretty tame you can feed them, pet them, sit next to them, lay next to them.. but watch out for the poop! One of the coolest things was that I was able to see a pretty faced wallaby and [View Full Entry]

The North Island has had tonnes of rainbows. We have thought to name our journeys "Fetching Rainbows Tour 08". Theme song, "Somewhere over the rainbow . . ." The problem is, Kirby only knows those ... [more]
We had a great time along the coast. We came across many rainbows, took a round of golf in Tauranga, and slept beside a kiwi orchard! We even gathered some fallen kiwis off the ground for a snack. We stumbled across "Beach Hop 2008" when we pulled into a town to 'skip to the loo'. There were cars lining every street and we knew something was up so made our way toward the crowds. It was a big celebration of the 50's and 60's with a large car show, sock hop dance competition, numerous vendors, and four live stages. There were [View Full Entry]

Today I was working again for Adrian. I met him at his shop for 8:30 where we loaded some panels on the truck and went off to the same site as yesterday. On the way I discussed all the money that he owed me ($700). I asked him when pay would be and what I thought I was owed. He explained how I am only paid 10 dollars an hour when driving between sites and 15 when we are onsite which I agreed was fair. And also no pay for lunch. Because of this my pay is now around $600. Once [View Full Entry]
