so some promised pictures will be coming.
now that I'm hanging around a group of aussie girls I'm getting accustomed to some more cultural differences. a few things... they like to abbreviate and add "ie" to everything! Dixon beach is "diko," chocolate is "chockie," gum is "chewie"... you get the idea. they use so much slang it's ridiculous to keep up.
i really like being so close to the beach, although i have to get used to surfing a shorter board and feel a bit of a kook out there at the moment. i still have to get the whole duck diving thing down, because i would always turtle roll my longer board. (sorry to non-surfers who have no idea what i'm saying) i love hanging out with girls who are stoked on God and surfing. i'm praying about staying here or traveling more. i was feeling frustrated today about it and shared that with one of the girls. right away she was like, "let's pray about it." i love being honest with people and seeing God work through that. what a difference it makes to rest in his peace and cling to his truth. God has really been showing me how beautiful life is with him... his love has just been radiating through so many of the people i've been meeting. there is nothing more encouraging than to see how God changes people's lives.
so here are a few more pictures to enjoy and create a visual for you.
love
