After hours of inpatient and anxious waiting, I finally found my abroad group!! Although we didn't have cool green luggage tags like those punks from Austrilearn, we all had extremely humongous backpacks towering over our heads--dead give away.
We spent the day trekking across Brisbane, finally arriving at the night's hostel--Brisbane Backpacking! Pool, hottub, dance floor and club! What were we missing in EspaƱa?! We walked through the city, where I bought my first legal drink--a genuine hard cider--and met up with our directors for some Thai food! Our academic director is pretty much just an Australian Alan Alda except more tired, and our bus driver Davi is your run of the mill drunken sailor. BOTH great guys!! Tomorrow at 8 am we begin our journey across the beaches of the Golden Coast for four days. No phone, no email, no nuthin. Love you so far Aussieland
