Endearing way to start the day.
We almost had an "Almost Famous moment" on the bus yesterday as we drove through more rural parts of Australia.
Our vehicle passed by the Rodeo drive-in movie theatre twice on the way to the retreat. I took note they were playing Planes 2 and Thor.
Most of the people on the bus were asleep and then Elton John's "Tiny Dancer" came on in my headphones. And in my head, I pictured us cranking the song like in that movie scene and everyone's singing, "Count the headlights on the highway."
Of course, that was in my head, but it played out nicely.
A lot of things have changed a year to this day. I remember being pretty miserable last year. And now, life is fucking grand. I have so many good things in my life, so many life changes since 365 days ago. All for the better. I would've never thought I'd be in Australia today. So lucky.
I love being 32. I love getting older and the knowledge and experience that comes with it. I'm still so young.
Today, we're going to be doing a rainforest walk and checking out a bat hospital, which I am looking forward to. They call them "flying foxes here."
Yesterday, we went to Granite Gorge Nature Park where we petted lots of wallabies. They weren't too keen on sharing with each other and one bit my palm while desperately grabbing my paper food bag. Still cute, though. Can't be mad at them for too long; they're too cute.
