Out and about

I just can't wait until our trip to the outback in a few weeks. Among the coolest things I have done here are the outdoorsy stuff. First, when we went bush walking to the Dandenongs then this last weekend, a friend from the Jewish school took me for a tour of the Mornington Peninsula. (I added a picture at the top so you could see what I am talking about.) right about in the middle there is a stop that is called Arthur's Seat. Where you can see the whole peninsula (absolutely gorgeous!). Across the bay you could see the skyline of the city but no real land, so it looked like a city in the clouds, (Click on the pictures to get them big) on the right side of the peninsula were sandy beaches and calm water, and on the back side of the peninsula it looked just like the Oregon coast. After checking out that view we drove the whole length of it. First the back side, climbing among the rocks (good thing Nikki wasn't there!). Then we cruised back up the beach side and finished it off talking some American politics over a pot or two of proper Aussie lager. He's an Obama fan much like everyone else outside of the USA.
