Hello Ppls

HAPPY AUSTRALIA DAY! woot!  They go ALL OUT for aussie day here so we got up nice and early to go down n watch the flag rasing ceremony , complete with F111 flyover and 21 gun salute. Much to the displeasure of all the children in the vecinity , the 21 gun salut was actually a 21 cannon salute lol. Had all the children crying after just one shot lol After that we took a walk checking out everything before finding some shade and laying under the palm trees on the lawn.  Once we were cooled off again we walked down by the water where they had a movie being played over the swimming pool then we went to the Piazza stage where they had acts playing all day. We watch some awesome preformers, some of my favs being SPLAT! [one of the members is the gym teacher at my prac school] , the tap dancers, and the final band called Jambezi [http://www.mikemeade.com/jambezi/] They were AWESOME! Pics of the day and the acts can be seen here : http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2118140&id=119100065&l=6eeaace536 and I made a video of the acts we saw, it can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0oN31PgCvBg 

Other then that the only other exciting thing is the AWESOMELY FANTASTIC package we got today from Mike, Jen and Julie! In said package was chocolate from back home (melted but still good) and some discs with a powerpoint and new yrs videos . Nate and I had a blast watching both things. THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH!  Miss you all even more now lol Hugs to you all for being awesome.
