Aussie's are here!!!


The dancers from the Robyn Yvettte Dance Studio in Port Stephens, Australia are here!!! They've been performing in area Elementary Schools. I spoke with 18 yr. old Madalynne, who is on her second trip to the U.S. She's been dancing, shopping, touring and just basically enjoying B'ham.
What's the weirdest thing you've experienced? The North Fork Beer Shrine that served Pizza and was also a Wedding Chapel. Pumpkin Ice-cream is a close second.
What are the biggest differences? The weather (freezing!), the houses and how BIG everthing is... (we didn't even take her to McDonalds for a Supersizer).
What did you like the best about Bellingham? How friendly everyone is.
What was a cool, funky, fun thing to do? Go to Everyone's Store in Acme.
What will you miss the most about Bellingham? Meeting people and getting "rugged up" (i.e. putting on layers, hats, scarves, etc) and my host family.
What do you miss from home? Vegemite (yeast spread), milo (kinda like Ovaltine)and definately the beach! Also my family!
What's the funniest thing that happened while you were here? Well, it was fun talking to the little kids after the performances and also to the sales clerks at Zumiez ... especially one in particular!!!
