Hey Guys!

I wrote this blog ages ago but then forgot to post it. We're hopping on a plane tonight and heading home, we can't wait to see you all. We've had an amazing time, sorry we haven't written so many blogs- we'll fill you in on all of our adventures in person!

See you on Tuesday!

Blog- 22 October 2010

Another update of how we are going…

After Miami we headed up to Atlanta to see Chris and Jess. It was so good to see some familiar faces. And we got to have our first home cooked meal in a while (Thanks Jess!!!) We spent our first morning there doing some much needed washing! And then Justin and I headed off to the World of Coke. It was definitely fun tasting all the coke products from around the world. My favourite was definitely Fanta Magic! It was like a party in my mouth J

The next day we got to go to a college football game! (Go Jackets!) It was cool just walking through the place seeing all the fraternity and sorority houses. The game was a lot of fun too. The band was massive! I just wasn't expecting how big it was! Justin bought a foam finger and we got to have our picture taken with the Georgia Tech mascot.

On Sunday we went shopping at Atlantic Station and then we went to church with Chris and Jess. After church we went to a pub and got to hang out with some of the people from the church. It was fun getting to talk to locals and tell them different aussie words. (Apparently we say "awesome" weird…) And it was a challenge to teach them how AFL works. I've never tried explaining it to anyone and it's much more challenging than I would've expected. I think it makes way more sense than American Football (Or Gridiron, as Justin keeps making me say) but apparently they don't see it rhat way. Haha.

After a sucky early morning and some farewells we were on our way to San Francisco. I'm pretty sure it has been Justin's favourite place so far. When we got to our hotel we weren't allowed to check in so we walked down to fisherman's wharf and grabbed some lunch at In-N-Out Burger. We didn't do a whole lot on this day but we did go to hooters for dinner. I wasn't really a fan. I thought the food was a bit gross. But ah well.

We spent our next day walking up and down the hilly roads of San Francisco to find the Golden Gate Bridge. It was pretty cool. It was so foggy and freezing but we walked along it and got some cool photos.

The next day we shopped at Pier 39 and then went on an amazing Catamaran under and around the Golden Gate Bridge at sunset. It was beautiful. Definitely one of my favourite things we've done so far.

We spent our last day in San Francisco wandering around Union Square and doing lots of last minute things we wanted to do.

It was sad to leave San Francisco this morning but we are very excited to be heading to Yosemite! Not long now until we'll be home. Missing you all xxx
