We packed up our little home in Calga in the Wildlife Park, cleaned it all ready for the new ISV group who are arriving tomorrow! It was freezing cold living there (i've never drunk sooo much tea to keep warm in my life) and every morning was a 6.30am rise but its kind of sad to leave! Nick the park ranger came to say bye to us and thank us for our hard work and played us this classic Aussie song called True Blue whilst we all sang along waving Aussie flags, some people got quite emotional to leave! But off we did leave to the airport....we accidently arrived 3 hours early so had to wait around a while before we could check-in our bags but then we were into departures. We had a group hug with our leader Alicia and all promised to keep in touch....ahh the wonders of facebook!She got us to all sign an Aussie photo book for her about our memories of the trip whichw as sweet!I didnt realise you were allowed to bring water through customs on a domestic flight so was chucking my litre bottle with Briana like mad before i put it through the conveyor belt scanner thing. The security guard found it hilarious how much we panicked about ringing water through to the departure lounge,lol!
We flew from Sydney to cairns and got to the hostel just in time for a night out. The hostel is amazing its like an ibiza hotel with a pool, bar and pretty decent hotel looking rooms just with bunk beds. Im sharing with Lou, Briana and some cool american girls i havent met face to face yet but had spoken to on facebook before we came to oz. Me and the girls went to Gilliagns (our hostel) bar all night and met some pretty cool people, we got quite drunk too as they do a nightly 2 4 1 offer on drinks...uh oh lol! We met a cool group of people and went to another bar with them called the Woolshed where everyone dances on the bar and on tables...fun :) Cairns is like the miami of america and the ibiza of europe.....everyone goes there from australia! Free drinks were not a problem all night...even girls buy you drinks out here lol!got home pretty late and smashed!! Should be interesting waking up for out 6.30am breakfast tomorrow :s
