Blog title no longer applies

I am currently sitting at my dining room table in Lynbrook with my suitcases strewn throughout my house. Obviously, I am no longer "down under." I wanted to write this one last post to just close off my trip.

I could not have asked for a better last hoorah in Sydney. Although I had a lot of time dedicated to studying for a final, I was able to spend time with friends and doing things that I still wanted to do. Also, when I got back to Sydney the weather was amazing. (Even though when we were in New Zealand the weather was amazing too, but still cold). Several days were spent hanging out on the beach, roaming through the city, meandering through the markets, etc. Several of the last nights we were there, I got to watch the sunrise on the beach with some of my favorite people. The last night I was there, or I guess the last morning, I was convinced to go surfing in a dress. That is the kind of random experience that makes traveling exciting.

So I guess there's no need for me to continue. I'll take this time to pull an awards show speech and thank my loyal readers. I hope you enjoyed the journey I have taken you through. I would like to thank my new friends for giving me some amazing memories, and my old friends for sticking with me no matter how far apart we are. Most of all, I will publically thank my parents for giving me the opportunity to travel and also for not panicking and contacting international officials when I fail to call or email for a few days.


A little part of me will always be Down Under and it will always be sunny in Australia.


Until next time, because there will be a next time...
Cheers,
Lara
