Surfing!











This weekend, Danny and I traveled 3 hours south to the town of Anges Water, where they offer surf lessons. The lesson was 3 hours long, and great fun! Danny was able to get up on his first try and was pretty successful, and I got up for a few seconds a couple of times.

On the way down, there were some interesting signs! One read, "Slow Trucks Carrying Explosives," I was not able to get a picture of it. There were a lot of signs warning against driving while tired, and to rest at the rest stops, which, unlike the US, were just a parking lot.

We stopped on the way down at a little town called Tanum sands, and walked to the beach. There was a seahorse and a crab decoration that was made out of metal. On the way back, we stopped at Lake Arwoonga (or something like that).

Hi Tonya and Danny,

That looks like a ton of fun! T, how is your new job going? Any pictures of what you do?

It's the end of the quarter, so we are doing grades and looking forward to vacation. Tara is home on break and I've been able to see her a little bit. My parents are coming for Easter and we've invited the whole crew over for Easter dinner. If they all come, it would be 19 or 20 for dinner. Luckily four of them are under the age of 6. Wish me luck on getting that meal in order!

Keep having fun over there - fuels my jealousy!! Take care! SC

My job at the Pineapple farm is going good, it's fun/interesting to talk to my co-workers! I don't have any pictures yet.

That would be fun to have a houseful of people for Easter, we're going to the Gold Coast over that weekend!

Good to hear from you! We are having fun, but miss friends and family!
