one full day left.......

hey guys this is michelle. its tuesday night and we are back at the cafe writing about our day.
today was our 9 hour bus tour around australia. the day started off at us getting up at 6:30 in the morning and we left the hotel at 7:15 and started our short walk to another hotel where the bus was going to pick us up at. we started our journey travelling to the zoo. this is where we got to encounter the kangaroo's and koala bears. it was amazing! we got to take a picture with the koala bear and pet it. then when we got to the kangaroo exhibit the oddest thing was that some of the kangaroo's were roaming free. also there was an emu that was walking around. then we also got to see wallabies and dingos and wombats. but don't worry we all took lots of pictures so everyone can see all the animals. then we went to go see the Blue Mountains. let me just say that they were GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the pictures that we were able to take were all so beautiful and i don't think many of us have seen anything like it. the only down fall was the it was FREEZING! thank goodness there wasn't any wind or anything like that. but then after that we went to a fruit farm and stopped and got some food there. then we started on our 2 hour bus ride home. it seemed like it was forever. but Father Mark was helping the situation out but leading us in some songs. =] =]
but now we are going to go back and try to pack our bags tonight so that we can have all day tomorrow to just do everything that we haven't done yet.
i know we are going to the space needle to take pictures and then to the opera house so we can see it during the day and we are taking some group pictures for people and then we are going shopping.
so hopefully tomorrow is a day of some what relaxing.

we might blog tomorrow but not sure.
if not we will see all of you this weekend and for the parents picking up BRIGHT AND EARLY friday morning.

God bless and thank you again for the prayers
