For one of my classes this semester, some classmates and I had to create an event for the community of Lennox Head. For weeks we have been planning a "field day" involving many games such as dizzy bat, three-legged race, balloon toss, rock climbing, archery, arts and crafts, tug of war, watermelon eating contest....and so on. Saturday was finally the day of the big event...and it went surprisingly well!! About 200(+) families from the community came out for the big event. Thankfully, the event was held during the 3 hours it has not rained in about 7 days! Everything turned out great and the kids loved all the activities (especially the watermelon eating contest!...and football toss. they were confused by the shape of an American football!) It was wonderful to get to interact with people of the community. I especially enjoyed talking to the kids...their little accents are so cute!
Once the event was over, the sky opened back up...and the rain continued. It has been raining here for a week now.. . and we're all starting to get a little bit of cabin fever. Thankfully, I leave tomorrow (tuesday) for another adventure. Brittany and I are going to explore around the Whitsunday Island (a chain of 74 islands around the Great Barrier Reef!) I'm sure Brittany and I will encounter some pretty crazy stories on this upcoming adventure... so stay tuned :)
cheers!!
