A Day of Goodness...

darling harbor!
tim tam slam!!




this morning i woke up and took a walk down to darling harbo for breakfast... darling harbor is literally right next to where we live and it is amazing! it has all these fun bars and restaurants and the sydney aquarium, sydney wildlife world, the chinese gardens, and all this FIFA world cup stuff! it is going to be amazing to live so near by! anyways, sydney literally has the BEST yogurt in the world! literally! i went to this place and you can choose yogurt with different toppings...i got half banana and passionfruit, and then half covered with museli (like granola) and omg the thing was huge! and then i got a fruit cup, omg besttt breakfast of my life hahaha it was just fabulous! i ate it and people watched and read my book in front of the harbor thinking how amazing life is :)




after that i went back to the room and Katie and i went to the grocery store! what fun! hahaha i bought all this food for the week.... pasta, veggies, chicken, sandwich stuff, salad, you name it... oh how i love markets... katie and i are already becoming such great friends!




after that we had an orientation where brad had to explain things about the program, but basically we all got super excited about the things we want to do... everyone is down to climb the bridge! can't wait!!








omg then we did this thing called a TIM TAM SLAM! hahaha so tim tams are the chocolate covered chocolate biscuit cookies, bascially amazingness, and we bought the double coated ones :) so brad made us all do a tim tam slam twice! basically what you do is you have a cup of hot tea, and you bite the opposite corners of a tim tam, and then you sip the tea through the tim tam until it basically melts the cookie part and then you shove the whole thing in your mouth so it is just a melty chocolatey mess haha kind of confusing to explian, but it was awesome!




Brad gave us some tips for our internship, and the low down on australia terms...




after that me and katie and tracy and alexa (two other girls i have become really close with) went down to darling harbor to have some lunch, just such pretty views... i had my first crunchie!! (chocolate covered honey comb bar... yummm) and afterwards we had to get ice cream... this place had over 30 flavors, now how am i supposed to decide!!?? haha i got a scoop of banana and a scoop of this like birthday cake one, and of course in a cone tehehe.




after that we just walked around darling harbor for a bit and then hit up the market again.




later that night we were all pretty tired so we just made dinner at home and then just all shared a bottle of champagne :) what fun








oh and i forgot to say that we live right next door to the chocolate room. aka dangerous ahahha they had 30 different flavors of hot chocolate! katie and i both wanna try banana (her fav flavor is banana too!!!! i swear i'm not the only weird person hahaha)




but anyways we are plannign on all goign there soon :)
