First day here and the weather was nice and warm. The wardlis look good and my group is good too! Excited for food shopping tomorrow! x Today was fun and so hot! The food shopping was good and a little stressful, but we ended up only going over the budget by $5. We then went for a swim which was cold at first but we ended up staying in for like an hour! Chill out time from 5-6 was heaps good and I fell asleep! X We went to the museum and learnt about what life was like in the Yorke Peninsula like a hundred years ago which is for our History/English assignment. We then ate our own lunches at a nice park and had a water fight! Afterwards we worked on our school work. We all then went for a night walk to the jetty which was heaps cool. That night I went into cabin 3's wardli and so them and I had to sleep out side in sleeping bags, and it was so much worse than I imagined!! I think I got 3 hours sleep overall because of the cold and the uncomfortable-ness! Never again! X Today was heaps of fun! Even though the weather wasn't the best I loved snorkelling and wasn't that cold afterwards. Poor Alle got a migraine so I stayed and cheered her up while the other girls went and did class work this afternoon. Tonight we had hamburgers which was yum! After this blogging sesh we're gonna watch the Simpsons movie, keeen! X In the morning we just worked on like drama and stuff but after that we went on a scavenger hunt! My group came a very close second which we were very proud of and won some vanilla slices! We had pizza tonight, it was so good and I was so full after! X In the morning we went food shopping and we were heaps under budget, thankfully! We got heaps of good food, like for nachos and roast :) In the afternoon I went snorkelling which was great, had so much fun and saw a tonne of jelly fish! At night we did a trivia quiz and my wardli one on a score of 127 points! We were so proud!!! X Today we went snorkelling all day today which was lots of fun. We went in a few different spots, and even though the water was cold and a little rough it was still good! We had to slide/jump in off some rocks which was scary at first but I was fine hhahah. It was really good to get home in the warm! X On Monday we went to Hardwick Bay and helped at an elderly home by weeding and stuff. They made us sandwiches and icecream! X Today was so much fun! We went to Point Pearce Aboriginal School and spent the day playing with kids. It was interesting, considering there was only 14 kids at the school! The youngest I met was just under 2 and the oldest was 12 I think so it was really good to talk to a whole range of kids. We did things like beading, reading, had piggie back races and played on the playground. I had such a good time and it was so sad to say good bye! Today we went to Innes National Park. After unloading our trailer at the camp site we went off weeding and then went to the beach for a walk. The beach was really nice and pretty! We cooked pasta on trangias that night and it turned out okay! I was in a tent with Alle and Em! X After getting an okays night sleep in the tents, we got up the next day for some more weeding and rubbish pick up. We were all really excited to go home and have showers, especially when our bus pulled up outside our wardlis, until the surprise came that more weeding was in store! So instead of getting of the bus we drove to one of the nanna's houses to fix up her garden! Then we went and played lawn balls where the nannas play which was fun :) X Today we just caught up on all the school work we needed to and it was nice just to have a chilled day! In the after noon we did a 'tournament of minds' activity and worked on it for a couple hours. Our task was to solve a environmental problem. The problem was that two neighbouring cities, a busy city and a quiet country town, were at war because the busy city wanted to expand on to the other ones land. We had to come up with a solution and have a creative presentation and WE WON!!!! Wooooo, our prize was the comfy couch and its now sitting in our lounge room! X
