Oh the random adventures!!

Ok..so I havent updated happenings at all the last month or so so ill just chuck on heaps of the random happenings the past month!! :)

So this last weekend their was supposed to be a big bonfire happening, BUT considering the rain and all a group of us decided to go to john forrest national park and go through what some would call the "ghost train tunnel" lol. I remember first moving here someone tried to convince me a ghost train goes by at night if you walk through!! Its a bit of a dodgey little tunnel but, fun as! We walked through with our glowsticks and had our own little gathering :)

What do you do when you have glowsticks?

Have a light saber photoshoot..duhh :)

Charlies angels i reckon :) lol


Love these girls!!

So..one night a big group decided..lets go on a scavenger hunt around perth!! It was real fun, there was about 12 things on the list where we had to get photos with! One of them was..taking a photo on a kangaroo.. and for those of you who think aussies ride kangaroos around...they do.
JK

Take a photo eating a cheeseburger..

Take a photo with a homeless man...

Take a photo in front of the handstand guy statue? lol

Take a photo playing dead at the train station..

First one to kings park with all their photos and tasks complete..WIN!! :) And of course..our lovely team dominated.

Nath and I went on a little trip to fremantle prison!! Lets just say they treated their prisoners like dirt..shame.

Eerie little place but, was sweet as to get a tour around!!

In this room an aboriginal did drawings in the wall of his room

Me, Kaeja, and jordan in the city getting yummy hans cafe!!

Dance party!!!!

The theme of the dance was mad hatter party..so we decided to look like presents:) lol

Me and candy girl!!


We went to sci-tech which was a cool little place where they have all this fun scientific entertainment ish!!

We were quite infatuated with the "fat" mirrors lol


Sci-tech playing on their toys :)

Heaps goes on here down under...with too little time to document!! So overall lets just say ive been on quite an adventure here in oz and it just keeps going :)

Bali!!

Finally, I got the motive to get my blog updated!! :) So a couple weeks ago I got to go on a working holiday with the family I work with for 9 days toooo...BALII!!! :) I got to talk to my bros while I was  there and when I told them where I was they said...wheres that? ...well people..its in indonesia!!! ..then he said..wheres indonesia?? .. hahaha! Classic. Anyhow the trip was amazing I got to experience seeing some of the most beautiful people!!



I was a millionare for a few days :)
Only in bali!! 1 australian dollar = 10,000 rupes!!


Bali, doesnt believe in road rules. You literally drive in whatever lane you want too..n even squeeze your vehicle onto the sidewalk if you wanted. This was the norm in bali..to have a whole family riding on one scooter...there were even babies being carried on them!

This was our villa we stayed at!! It was beautiful!!

Villa...rumah cabe :)

Me and miss maia playing around with the statues!

Sitting outside the villa watching kites! The balinese people love flying kites you will see tons of them up in the sky each day!

This was a beautiful restraunt we ate at!! For a really fancy meal in bali it was only about 5 australian dollars!!



This was at alot of the restraunts for people to clean their hands :)

They have some really cool instruments. You will find people playing these everywhere you go!

We went to bali zoo..and it was more depressing than anything! They dont treat the animals well in any way..but I guess the experience has to be documented ha!


The monkey temple!!! You walk around and tons of monkeys are there just walking around. Some of the balinese people worship here.

They arent very nice...They stole an ice cream out of ngakinas hand and have tendancies from what I hear to snatch things from people lol..and bite.

Prob my favorite picture..this little monkey was SOO cute!



Yeah no worries just hanging out with the monkeys :)

This is what their markets are like! These are literally EVERYWHERE!! I went shopping for my first time here and learned how to barter!! They tell you 100,000 rupes you tell them 50,000.. lets just say I hate bartering especially when they follow you around!! But, these people have  to work for their money so the dedication shown was amazing!



These are outside everyones houses and in everyones shops. They place them there as an offering for the things their given!!

We went and spent a couple nights at a safari park where we had the chance to ride elephants..hold snakes ..orangutangs..all sorts of stuff.

This is an elephant that some of the people worship..not exactly sure how or why but, it was a beautiful statue!!

You would see this quite a bit walking around bali!!

We got a long quite well!! :)

Feeding zebras on our night safari!!

Suprisingly enough they have a starbucks in Bali!! Also, they had a cold stone creamery :) which I took liberty of testing out.

We went to dinner on this famous beach..I forgot what it was called but, heaps of famous surfers go there!! It was gorgeous!!

Tane and katut playing at the beach. The balinese people LOVE children!!

To sum it all up my trip was amazing. The food, the prices, the people, the scenery!! LOVED it..definitely a trip that needs to be reenacted!! :) Id go into more detail about what I did there but, I cant be bothered and like they say..pictures speak 1,000 words!!
All I know is ive been living the life I thought id only see in movies :)
