So much has happened that I barely have enough time to sleep let alone type. I'm sorry it's taken me a few days, ie 4... It doesn't feel like it's been four whole days, but it has. Four days of just craziness, that I will explain in the next few blog posts!
So Sorrento, I think when I last left you all off, we got off the plane from LAX. Okay pick up, it's still the 19th of February, we all hop on the bus; I still can't believe that I'm actually in Australia, and that it's not covered in two feet of snow. And the sun is shining and it's warm. I was in jeans from the plane and let me just tell you, it was HOT! I was sweating like a turkey on Thanksgiving. We travel out in a pack headed for some tapas at a place called Phamish. We had a little food and drank amazing fizzy lemonade, that I honestly couldn't tell you the name of, and then we were off to explore St. Kilda on foot! We walked around the streets for a bit and then walked back toward the beach. Let me tell you, the streets were so quiet. It was definitely obvious that we were not from the area.
But the beach was awesome! Took some groups photos of all of us new friends, and waded in the water. And that's when I saw them; my ankles had swelled and it was incredibly unsightly. Very traumatic experience to say the least. And we walked around some more, got to know everyone, spoke in accents, made people laugh, and then went to take pictures of creepy Luna Park. Which apparently is a replica of the one on Coney Island. Doesn't make it any less creepy, but there you go.
We then hopped on the bus again, lots of bus travel, and ventured about two hours till we got to our hotel in Sorrento, we unpacked relaxed for a bit then went to the beach. It was fantastic up until it started raining, but we still stayed for a bit to take some artsy shots, then it started to down pour and we left. We had dinner, met up with the rest of the group then went to watch the sunset at the beach because it had cleared up.
It was absolutely beautiful, I can't even tell you how gorgeous it was, it was unreal. The colors just lit up the sky and even turned the typically blue sea water, pink. After we hiked up to a lookout point and took loads of photos, we climbed down a ways to get closer, we tried to go down to the beach, but it was far too windy. The sand was hitting us in the face, so we stayed for a bit, found out everyone had already left, and then left. I could just sit and watch the sky forever. So that was our Wednesday, I'll be posting one about Thursday-now soon, so much is happening, I have barely enough time to type it all, let alone trying to recall what exactly had happened.
Until next adventure: stay classy, be cool, don't be stupid.
