In Brisi and the on the Island

Hello All,
     So a couple of days since a good update Brock and I have finally stopped goin so fast paced and relaxing at the hostel in brisbane for the night until we head up to sunshine coast tomorrow. Brisi is amazing and a vibe similar to the US cities so its pretty fun, the hostels are way more nice... like a hip hotel. its really fun! so many interesting people. I will say though we have seen so many people pissed off at each other and not afraid to say anything about it either... a little crazy. The first day in Brisi we went to this amazing breakfast (breaky) place where the capachino was to die for! then we walked around the outdoor mall and watched live bands then walked across a bridge to the other side of the river and walked the river walk to this amazing public pool that looked like a lagoon we didn't go swimming a bit cold for that but it was really pretty. Then we walked across a different bridge just for pedestrians to the botanical gardens where I saw PARROTS!!!! hopefully those who understand my crazy for birds i was SO excited!  :) after that we were pretty tired and took naps and then went to dinner and were back in our beds by 7:00 thanks jet lag! haha. 
      The next day we got up around 6:30 and left for Moreton Island on the ferry at 8:30am. The island was incredible!!! the water was so blue! (MOM you would have died and gone to heaven... wish you had been there). crazy birds too it was so awesome i was so entertained. We camped at a camp site called the wrecks where they purposefully sunk ships to break the waves for when ferries came in. We for a long walk that next morning it was like a 4 mile walk or so then that afternoon we went snorkeling where I flipped out because of the fish... I tried to prepare Brock but i guess that didn't do much good. I was hyperventilating pretty much the whole time haha! ya... adventure! haha whoo hoo! it was great. so today we came back from the island and back to Brisi and walked around chinatown which was hilarious! And now we're just chillin and goin to grab a drink later at the hostel's bar and go to bed and get up and go to that awesome breaky place again and leave by 11:00am for the sunshine coast to a different hostel and hang out on the beach! :) 
     love you all! and miss you family! I'm doing great and Australia is awesome so far. I'm getting nervous about starting the job but hopefully it will be just as amazing! 
Cheers,
Amelia
