Hooray, we are finally reunited! I left Aramac on Saturday, which was actually sadder than I thought. Friday night was a fun last night, though, with a lot of shot-taking and all the bonding that entails. I'll miss Axelle, who ended up understanding my sarcasm and being pretty funny. Upon leaving, I was presented with a genuine Aramac Hotel cap and a homemade pumpkin pie, in honor of Thanksgiving. Wonderful! (side note: nobody here has ever heard of pumpkin pie. weird).
I got to Tambo on Saturday evening to hang out for Julia's last night and meet the main characters of her barmaiding experience. Pretty fun, nothing too wild. Tambo has TWO pubs, THREE gas stations, and a real grocery store-- it was like a metropolis! All that was missing were the stoplights and teeth in people's mouths. Anyway, we finally left the outback on Sunday evening, via a 14 hour Greyhound journey. The all-night bus ride was obviously a good time, but nothing compared to seeing Shana again. We're all happy to be back together and are excitedly planning our imminent trip to Cairns for snorkelling and whatnot. We have found, however, that the novelty of drunken backpacker bars has worn off somewhat, and I personally am happy to leave the cities and just explore the dozens of national parks.
This was very general, but the next couple of weeks should be a frenzy of travelling/seeing beautiful places. Look forward to it.
