Got up, packed my stuff, said bye to the receptionists then got the 7.50 bus to the transit center. Met some other girls waiting for the Oz Ex bus on the way there, we had an hour and a half to kill till the bus arrived!

Got on the bus at half 9 and met 2 guys Tess had been travelling with, so I...

Got woken up at 6 by Muzza, can't remember his morning rhyme exactly but sure made me laugh! I got up and out fo the tent straight away and he was stood at the top of the little sand dune, I ran across and so did Bruno and Patrick. We were in time to see the first peek of sun at sunrise!
