Monday it rained in Noosa...so not that exciting of a day. Tuesday we also spent in Noosa, and we went on a hike for a couple hours in the Noosa National Park. We were hoping to see some koalas, but no such luck. Wednesday we headed to Surfer's Paradise. Surfer's Paradise is quite a lively city, with lots of restaurants, people, and stuff to do. We went for dinner at an Irish pub, and ended up staying there as there was a big rugby game on TV. It was the State of Origin game, where Queensland plays New South Wales. Having only been in Queenslands up to that point, I had to support Queensland...that and because they won. It was an exciting game, even though I don't fully get it.
Thursday, Amy and I went surfing! Well, attempted to surf is more like it. Amy did a pretty good job, managed to stand up quite a few times. I stood up on the second or third try, only to fall off and hit my knee on the sand...which gave me a huge bump on my knee, and it started bleeding, and swelled up. I did try again, but was afraid to stand up for fear I would fall again. By that time, my knee was hurting so bad I had to stop. So sadly, I only stood once....however, I did stand (contrary to what some members of my family thought, who figured I wouldn't stand at all!).
Friday morning we left Queensland for New South Wales, and are now in Byron Bay. We walked around for a bit, and then I did what every one should do while traveling....I got my hair done! We were walking around, and we passed a cool-looking salon that had a sign saying they were voted the best for 9 consecutive years. Amy brought up that I had mentioned I wanted to get my hair done, and we both decided that this salon looked like a fun place to get it done. So we went in and they were able to get me in right then. So, the overall color is now dark brown, with blond and dark red highlights. I really like it. Oh, and it started raining right after, so we luckily missed all the rain, as it was over by the time we left.
