Sunday..best day so far!

wow, i really hope this picture works. well we have been having a BLAST and I finally really feel like I'm in aus. yesterday we went to Fengal (a beach about an hour away from here, past the gold coast). It was by far the most amazing place I've ever been! God is such an amazing creative God to form the rocks and waves so perfectly. The beach was not commercialized at all so it was pretty much a jungle around there. We got to swim in the ocean (no great whites as far as we knew!) and the waves were tremendous. There were a lot of surfers there that day, and they said the waves were pretty flat...I was shocked that those huge waves were considered small! my friend Brittany (from Colorado) and I got buried in the sand, and I'll try to get some of those pictures on here. It was really fun. Well we packed up and headed over to Surfer's Paradise (abt. a 45 minute drive from Fengal) and it was very cool as well...but extreme opposites! This was a huge city...pretty much all hotels and condos and shops etc. Tons of people were there...we went at around 6 so we didn't get a chance to swim there. I definitely prefer the quiet non-commercial beaches over the noisy city beach...but both have advantages! Well after a much needed burger at Hungry Jack's (Aussie version of Burger King, even owned by BK) we headed back to base. It was a really fun weekend!
