week 2

I've already been here two full weeks! It's hard to believe it's been that long. I've been busy doing homework, getting trained for my service placement, going to the beach, going to different church services, and figuring out how to read bus schedules. I've had some interesting conversations with people on the bus though. Australians are super friendly.
Every morning I have to wake up early to catch bus 492. The public transportation around is really good but it can get annoying having to wait around for busses and trains and ferries all the time. 

The picture to the left is the bus stop in Burwood near where I live. The picture below is the street I live on. It's a really pretty neighborhood. I love going on runs past all the plumeria trees, hibiscus, picket fences, exotic birds, palm trees, and cactus.

This is my host brother Anthony. He's cool.

And these are aborigines in the city performing and making lots of money. I love all the sounds in the City. There are always live performers, tons of people speaking languages from all over, lots of busses, trains, and boats, and random city noises.
