Hi Greg



My Weekly Report from the last two weeks:

On Friday the ninth of December, I went to our third and last Rotary Camp at Forest Edge. It was really good to see all the people again and it was weird to see how excited the outbounds were, because I can exactly remember how excited I was and now almost half of my exchange is over.
So we had as in all weekends lots of fun and we talked a lot, ate a lot and good and went for a bushwalk.
On Sunday after all the Outbounds left with their parents, the Inbounds packed our two Minibuses and started driving to Geelong. The first night we stayed in Cabins at the Caravan Park there. For dinner, we went to the local Pub and had a chicken parmagiano and for Breakfast, we cooked some scrambled eggs and bacon.
Then we had a swim at the beach there and after lunch, we drove off to Apollo Bay where we stayed the rest of the nights. After we arrived there, we went into the water again and after dinner, we enjoyed the sunset during a little walk at the beach.
On Tuesday we went to see the twelve Apostels and we had our Photosession with our flags. There were a lot of Asian people and it was really funny, because they all wanted a Photo with us and our flags.
Because we spent pretty much all day in the Bus, I and a few others went for a run along the beach, but we walked almost the whole way.
On Wednesday, we went to see some Parrots and after we fed them, they were flying on our head, shoulders and backpacks. After driving a little bit up a dirt road, we saw a koala which was sleeping in the tree and on our way back, there was another one, climbing down a tree.
For the afternoon, we all rented a surfboard or a Buggieboard and we tried to surf but it was my first time on a Surfboard and the waves were really bad so I wasn’t successful at all.
But on Thursday morning we got up really early and we tried it again and I could knee a couple a times which isn’t too bad for the first time surfing without a teacher or someone who can show you what you have to do.
Then we had our last Breakfast with eggs, bacon, tomatoes, tinned spaghetti, beans, toast, cacaopops, pancakes, and the rest hamburgers and sausages of Wednesday evening and after we packed up, we headed back home.
But because my hostfamily was staying in Melbourne for Thursday night, I was away for one night more and we went to see the Myers windows, had dinner in Chinatown and had a look at the Christmaslights.

It was a really good trip and I can’t wait to the ride to conference where we are all Inbounds together again.

Last Saturday, I went to stay with Bronwyn and Tim for a few days and I was there for their big family christmas party with 40 people. It was so noisy, but I enjoyed it a lot, because I met so many people and the food was good as well.

The last two days, I spent with backing cookies and muffins for Christmas and I think I’ve already eaten half of it.



Merry Christmas
