by admin on January 13, 2013

good morning! (or afternoon on Sunday for you all! )

How was everyone’s weekend?

Mine was a lot of fun..lets recap shall we?

Friday night we started off going to a Greek restaurant in Sydney for dinner

Group shot at the school before leaving (notice the beach view in the background..I wish Delaware looked more like Manly, Australia)

Selfies on the ferry ride over to Syndey :)

The food at the Greek restaurant was just alright. The only thing I managed to snap a picture of was a piece of Spanikopita

We also had some chicken, greek salad, and calamari

After dinner is when the fun began. We started dancing, broke some plates, did some greek line dancing, put on some funny costumes and had a great time!

Funny hats and wigs always lead to a good time. There was also some kareoke action during the night

Saturday we spent a lot of time at the beach and then got ready to go out as a group

We went up on the roof to take some pictures before going out. I tried taking a picture of the view but the flash on my camera ruined it :( it was pretty cool though!

And here is the only picture I have from the bar (and its not even mine lol stole it off facebook obviously :) )

Irmak, Jess, and I with Matt photo-bombing in the back lol. The bar was really fun but it was SO crowded. I’m pretty sure the entire town of Manly and then some were in attendance

Yesterday it was gross and cold outside so we spent most of the day just hanging out, studying a bit, and taking a nap right after breakfast..yup not kidding lol

We went to dinner at a local restaurant called Beaches Pizza Bar

Nikki and I shared a greek salad and goat cheese pizza

The salad was so good. I discovered on this trip that I now like kalamata olives..I use to HATE olives.IMG_3275

The pizza was SO so good. It had artichoke hearts, sundried tomatoes, goat cheese, and pancetta. Amazing.

Last night I went to bed early so I woke up around 6 this morning to get in a quick work out

The worst part about this work out was the first couple of rounds when my body still felt so sleepy. Starting out with 10 burpees is a littttle harsh. But by the 3rd round I got into the work out groove. The whole work out took me about 25 minutes to do

breakfast this morning was a big yogurt and fruit bowl with a little granola on top

We leave for New Zealand on Thursday morning. I’m sad to leave Australia but I’m really excited for New Zealand because when we are in New Zealand we’ll be doing a lot more traveling and exploring and way less class time

cause who wants to take classes when they’re abroad..um NO ONE. I’ve had a lot more school work on this trip then I expected which is kind of annoying but I can’t complain because I’m still having an amazing time regardless!

I hope to post one more time before I head to New Zealand

have a great day everyone!
