Last free weekend, first day of class

This was the last weekend before classes began and it consisted of a night out in the city with Kelsi, my wonderful housemate from Oregon. On Sunday Kelsi and I got a grand tour of Townsville from our local friend Jordan. We drove to one of the highest points in the area, the mountain where the radio transmission towers are. Here you can see Kelsi and Jordan and the view from the top.




That afternoon, after spending some time on the Strand, we returned to the aquarium to enjoy the exhibits, watch the predator tank feeding, and see a clip on dangerous jellyfish – and I became a member so I can return for free.





Today is the first day of class and it’s going smoothly; it looks like I’ll have relatively relaxing Mondays, so I’ll be going for a swim this afternoon. Now I just have to make the final decision about my courseload.
