First Day in Australia

Well after close to 20 hours of flying, I am finally settled in to Australia.  At first look, Newcastle looks beautiful with amazing beaches.  The 14 hour flight from SF to Sydney was just like any other flight.  I do recommend that you fly economy plus, the extra leg room is really nice.  I was surprised that we were offered three meals.  They were not exciting, but they did the job.  I was able to sleep about half way then had to watch movies to pass the rest of the time.  I seen The Croods, The Great OZ, and Beautiful Creatures.  Once we arrived in Sydney, our driver from Happy Cabby picked us up.  After a short 2 hour drive to Newcastle, I finally was able to see the city and my living arrangements.  I have to two roommates, the apartment is small but has a kitchen, living room, a small bathroom, and to rooms.  Which means I have a a roommate.  I still need to unpack and get some supplies.  See you next time

Last Night in America

Hello everyone,

I would like to thank everybody for coming out to my moms for the going away party.  It really means a lot to see everybody their, from family to friends.  I hope you all enjoyed it as much as I did.  Special thanks to Nikki for taking the photos, the Kleifgens for the poor mans golf and washers, and especially to my mom, dad, Larry, and Lori for putting this on.

Every thing is packed and I'm ready to go.  I finally have my classes and in a following post, I will put up my schedule for everyone to see.  Sunday nights will be the best time to Skype.  If you are interested, follow along with me through my itinerary:

Hello everyone,

This is my first blog and as of right now on July 10, 2013,  I still have unpacking and packing to do.  I haven't really thought about Australia, since having four summer classes took up most of my time in Platteville.  I hope to blog at least once a week.
