Australia Day

Today is Australia Day and everybody is out enjoying the sun, the bbq, the wafes or the beer! But ms. Iceland sits inside in her litle room and translatets danish to icelandic!!!! Sick or what! No...just so responsable :-)
I found two friends to live with and we've spent the last week in finding-viewing-applying for units and houses for rent. This takes a lot of time, especially because we don't have a car and the busses here are like home in Iceland. They come once every hour, if they come at all! So I decided to dedicate this weekend to working and finishing my scholarship applications!
Here are some more travel stories:

After Hunter Valley we drove off to the east coast and stopped at Hawks nest, where the weather was a litle bit windy and not warm enough to bath! But it was so nice to see the beach and the ocean again. We drove off to Seal Rocks (this photo) which was really beautiful and the area around was nice as well. We ended up sleeping in Port Maquarie which is a nice town for holiday.

In Port Maquaire we saw the nice dolphins jumping and kissing people. You could get in the water with them for 30 min. for $200 and after seeing that I was glad I didn't hop in. Because the only thing people were allowed to do was to pet them a litle bit, hugg them, kiss them and throw a ball to them. So not too exciting!
