Surfing is FUN!

Don't forget to stretch before surfing! It was actually pretty hard on the ole body. I was sore and exhausted, I'm not gonna lie


Hang-10 pic with Team America


Surfing...Baywatch style. Don't I look graceful in front? I thought so


Notice that there is no water around. This was one of the rare times that I actually GOT up!


I love this picture of the Apollo Girls

Although I SUCK at surfing, it was so fun to go and learn how. Amy and I absolutely LOVED it and had the best time, except for the fact that we got stuck in different groups. NO thanks to Brian, I'm sure! Amy was a champ at surfing, but I struggled. I was able to finally get up on several occasions on the last day though. I was pretty proud of myself. And another plus was that our teacher was names Claire. Good name and awesome girl. I know it had to be the name!!

Canoeeing is HARD work

Chillin' in our canoees on the the stressful 2 week trip with Combo
(Zach, Ashley, and Leah)


Some of the group waiting for everyone in the back to finally catch up


Me and Amy doin' our thing...40 miles ahead of everyone else and me NOT paddling. Pretty good set-up if you ask me!


Playing cards and having fun after long days on the water. Another stressful activity as you can see

Sleeping in the swags in the dead of the Outback

At the end of the canoe trip--the Ocean


Taste-testers for the First-Annual Australia Bake-off Competition.
I'd have you know that Amy and I got "The best taste" award for our Tim-Tam Icecream Pie

I still have this BLOG?

Ummm....I'm pretty sure that I've been back from Australia for almost 2 years and I still dont have any pictures posted on this dang blog site. I actually completely forgot that I set it up for an easy way for my family to FINALLY see pics of the paradise that is Australia. I still have this blog? Blah, I'm the worst at these kind of things! I guess I might as well add the pictures now. No time like the present.
