RANT:

Ok so I have just returned from my week holiday in vanuatu! now some have said why do you get a holiday you are on holiday everyday in Australia! I would like to say that is completly wrong! Australia is just like home I go to school, work, chores, ect ect plus the added stress of being an immigrant and spending 3 months to find a proper visa to stay and almost be deported! though i do try and live each day as a holiday! sorry but I was getting irritated with hearing how I am on holiday here. dont forget california has all the same holiday qualities and many believe living there is a constant holiday!

VANUATU:

Ok so Vanuatu which if you dont know is an island 2 hours plane ride west of Brisbane. Basically the less commercial version of Fiji! And it was absolutley Amazing! Highlights include:
Getting my open water dive certificat! meaning i did 5 dives including a shipwreck which was just amazing!!
Going down a huge river in a tree canoe and then being "attacked" by the villagers until the cheif came out. He blew the peace shell! SO they backed off and did native dances and we got to try the local food! Actually very yummy! Also try Kava which is there drink that comes from a root. and i did not like it just numbs your lips!
having our bungalow open up to our own bit of beach with fantastic snorkeling 20feet in front!
being sailed around by Jamie on th catamaran!
meeting tons of cool people and having great dinners and chats with people all over the world!
losing the camera on the bus! *Jamie lost it I was furious, I am now over it* almost
attempting to make it in the markets and not suffocate
attempting to get a tan *almost does a dark red count*
seeing where survivor vanuatu was taped * quite funny very remote area and then a building off in teh middle with the cleanest bathrooms ever!
and a million more things!!!

This was just the best trip and hopefully the beginning of more to come!! we plan one for every six months! got that joint banking account and everything to save! so febuary 2006 thailand!! :)
