It's been a while! These last few weeks have been a whirlwind. My fam came to sydney for new years, then we took off to go to cairnes, snorkeled in the great barrier reef, and saw where the rainforest meets the sea! It was gorgeous. Then we flew down to the gold coast, where the weather was pretty bad but we had a blast anyway. The east coast is so beautiful, so many beaches, surfers, warm water, national parks, crazy animals.... love it. We got a surf lesson also which was very fun! Pat can now say he is a surfer :)
Montana and I are in surfer's paradise right now on the gold coast and managing to stay away from the massive flooding in most of queensland. It's so sad, they are calling the floods the biggest natural disaster in Australian history. Nuts! Our plans originally, based on the fact that it is SUMMER here and supposed to be NICE weather, was to go up the coast to fraser island, which has a bunch of adventure stuff to do, and to Brisbane... but the roads anywhere north of here are closed and Brisbane is basically underwater so we are trying to figure out what to do for the next 2 and a half weeks before we go to new zealand. Hopefully will be able to come back to Queensland at some point when the weather is better!
Here are some pictures of family adventures:
