Heathers Excellent Solo Adventure #2

Hey all.

So the last couple days have been fun, dont think youve had much word since Caloundra so I'll give you the exciting details.

I spent 3 days in Mooloolaba, and didnt manage to accomplish all that much, but I did try surfing, which I failed miserable at, but thats okay, the important thing is that I tried.. Right?! And while I was out there I saw a sea turtle, so that makes it totally worth it. The day that I tried surfing I spent the whole day lying on the beach basically, and from that day foward I've been enjoying a sunburn every couple days. Waiting for the tan guys, then I'll start wearing sun screen :). I didnt do much else though. I talk to some French people, and was entertained be the drunk people, I have yet to be one of them on this little journey. I also went for a nice run, and on that run I found something along the trail that I really wish that we had in the parks at home. It's a work out station, where you can do all sorts of different workouts, pretty sweet.

After my 3 days in Mooloolaba, I moved on to Noosa. Other than being really beautiful, and not being aloud to have a building that is higher than 3 stories, which I think is great. You dont feel drown by buildings. But what I really love is the hostel that I stayed at, it's been my favorite hostel so far. Free breakfast, free internet(which is always good, the one I'm at now is 5 bucks for an hour*thumbsdown*). I enjoyed my stay there though, I went for a walk around the junction and there was a shop that sold things that were made with sea shells and the floor was all sand, it was neat, didnt like the woman that was working there though.
On my last day I decided to go for a walk in the Noosa National Park. Well, I tell you, it was beautiful, and it also gave me another first to tick off my list if I had one. I left a little to late in the day, and I knew this but I was over confident. So after visiting Hells Gates, which is a point in the park that looks out and you have ocean all the way across your vision. Then, I got lost.. in the forest... in the dark... Awesome right, hilarious.. Lets just say that I have never once been lost in the woods and it takes a lot of telling yourself to keep going and it will be okay to keep from curling up in a ball of the path and just holding yourself, lol:). I just kept going, trying to go back the way that I had come but after a while I failed at that, finally, even though it was in the complete wrong place, I found a road. And after wondering around on this road for a while I decided that I was probably  gonna get myself more lost. So when I looked up and say somebody on their balcony, so I asked them where I was and told them that I was lost, I went and sat up on their balcony with them because they had convinced me to take a cab back to the hostel cuz it was still a long walk away. After talking to them for a bit the cab showed up and the guy handed me 20 bucks, I told them they didnt have to of course, but they said that they would feel better if I had it. So thank you to Valery and Steve, for saving me :).
When I got back to the hostel, I ate, watch the Ugly Truth, and then somebody got the great idea to put on Marley and me. Well, I gotta tell you, I liked the movie, but had I gone into it knowing what it was about, i wouldnt have done it, I spent the last like 20 mintues of that movie crying my eyes out because it's one of those movies that just hits way to close to home. Made me miss my puppy and re live everything, even though its been 3 years. But, it was a good movie, dont really know if I'll watch it again but, maybe I will, just to reminice..

But now I'm in rainbow beach and will be off tomorrow to the Whitsundays hopefully.

Thats all for now.
Love you all.
