quick note from down under!
Hey ya all! I just wanted to say hi since it’s been a few days. Everything is going great and the wet season has come to an end so we are enjoying sunny warm days once again!
My weekend went pretty well. I spent Friday night at home with Lana watching ‘My Best Friend’s Wedding’ and eating popcorn and chocolate. (what a life!) Actually, we weren’t at home, we were at the neighbors babysitting for their baby who was sleeping most of the time that we were there. (3 hours) We each got paid $10 for doing exactly what we were gonna do anyways except in a different house.
Saturday was spent with Lauren (yr 11) in Redlynch and were at a party/open house thing for a friend of the family’s birthday. While I was there I met and became friends with this girl named Isabelle Lucas who just recently got a part on one Australia’s most popular Soap Operas–Home and Away. I can’t wait to watch it in a few months and be able to say, “I know her!” 
On Sunday Lauren and I pretty much just sat around all morning listening to music and chatting online because it was too hot to go outside. I didn’t get a ride home until about 3:00. After that, Lana and I just hung out for the rest of the day.
I hope everyone had a great St. Patrick’s Day! We didn’t really do anything to celebrate it over here. They just acknowledged the holiday on the radio and that was about the last I heard about it. I did think of all you though and Clare’s parade, and bed races, and green beer. It always cracks me up what a big deal Clare makes of St. Patty’s Day.
Well I gotta go cuz I’m in tourism class right now. I’ll write again soon! I hope everyone is enjoying the spring weather! Have a great day and I’ll post pics soon! (I just scanned some last night.) <3 Jess
