The first weekend in my new home and Easter arrives. With my last class on Wednesday, my 5 day
weekend started. I had a interview to
conduct Thursday morning with Alison Hemsley, and then went to the beach for
the rest of the afternoon. One Friday I started off with homework and then got
ready for my trip down to Berry.
My buddy Chris invited my mates and I on the trip down the
south coast. I also bought My mates that
I met the night before came along. Natalia was an exchange student from Spain
and Cassidy was a local from Boulder, Colo. Both really super kickback and hilarious.
We took off Friday afternoon. All jammed into Chris's little
white car. The first stop was Kiama one of the nicest beach towns on the
southern coast on Australia. It was a barbeque at a house overlooking the Kiama
Bay.
The patio had christmas lights strung out and a bricked fire
pit in the back. It was such a
California style kickback, thrown by two brothers one named Josh (18) and Will
(mid-20's). Josh was indie little rocker and Will was the former rugby star in
high school. The crowd was so eccentric but worked. The BBQ consisted of sausage on white bread
(AUS hotdog), pizza, and beer.

Not to long and I was ready to find a secluded corner and pass out. Chris found me and snapped a photo. The whole waking up to a picture of you past out on your phone is a common occurrence of me, at least I was on a couch this time. In the morning we made toast and espresso. The kitchen table overlooked the entire farm. Unaware of the beauty during the previous night, I was amazed at the place in front of me.

Lucious green grass and volumoius trees spread the property. Wore wooden gates make large stable lots for the 5 horses, 2 more are not their, 7 all together. Natalia, Cassidy and I hang out with each one, each one unique.
- Heidi, sweetest horse ever.
- Genga, is the little rebel. He is still a young horse.
- Bobby and Roy are buddies. They are funny characters, Roy tried to eat my butt. Bobby was the older horses.
- And finally Gerry, he was the best looking horse. We loved to roll in the grass, it was a sight.
Adam's farm also had two miniature horses.
"I don't even know why we have them," he said.One of them looked exactly like Donkey from Shrek. Now, in his driveway we walked up the picturesque path. At the top the animal introductions continued with two goats. I couldn't help but see Kevin Garnett's face at this point. (Basketball reference for ya)
Our little vaca carried on. 7 mile beach was next on our
list. 7 mile beach is known as the best surfer starter beach in Australia. The
waves are so keen (AUS slang for very sure/anticipating) for long rides. The
fun part is crossing the creek before getting to the beach. You are in
waist-deep river temperature water with a small current and then endless sand
for miles. It delivered the best waves I have seen.
Body-surfed for hours, we didn't bring any actual
surfboards. Next time. We head into town soon for some grub. The Great Southern
Hotel is choice where we load up on bistro style food. I got the nachos and of
course they suck! Sorry but no good Mexican food in Australia yet.
