I have arrived here down under.. and it is winter, and cold. burrrr!!!!

I was not able to take pictures of the airport while traveling as we had soo many bags with soo much weight that there was no way that I could ever uncover my camera.

After a total of flying 22 hours we have arrived safe and sound.

I was welcomed with open arms by the Frazier family in their home and their family. Which was a relief, because I just started to cry.

It was hard flying over Utah and saying goodbye to my home land and all of my family and friends. :( I know that it is going to take me some time to adjust and get into the groove here.

I am trying to adjust to the time schedule here as it is 11:30 am. I have already unpacked everything and just thought that I would update the blog.

Well I am off to the shower and to get ready for my day.. although I am hammered I am also going to eat some crumpets with peanut butter and drink some brekky juice.. yum!!!

Leaving on a jet plane

Well I have decided to go to Australia for a year for a really long vacation.

Alright well here is the real story.

I have had the same job for the past 8 years, and just kind of put myself in the every day rut.. So I figured why not move to Australia for a year. I am going to live there with my friend Jesseca and her family. How I met Jesseca is a long story for another post for another day, but in a nutshell she is one of my best friends and has helped me let go of the past and move on to the future.

I am planning on getting a job maybe doing hair or some photography... not sure yet, and just making money to support my holiday. The real truth is that I want to hang out at the beach everyday and have just enough money to live the good life. ha ha.. but really.

I have created this blog as my journal to share with family and friends of my adventures in Australia. Isn't it fun that you get to read it.. he he..

So I am leaving today within a few hours on a big jet plane. I am feeling nervous, scared, excited, sad, emotional... all of the above. I am excited to go and start a new adventure, but I am going to miss my family and friends so much!!!

I will try to update the blog several times a week with photos so you can feel as if you were in Australia with me, and sharing my adventure if you want.
