I asked them a bunch of questions, including what language they thought we spoke in Australia (we got through Austrian, Spanish, French and Australian before we got to English!) and also told them Australian jokes that are so not funny but are great for use over here. 

Sharing with the kids at the elementary chapel. It was so much fun! 

Myself and Laura out on the rocky outcrop, right near the actual falls. 

Me near the waterfall 

So this is Olivier with the Home Ec teacher (my billet) and the school principal of the school that we visited in Campbell River. 

Apparently it requires great concentration and a resonable amount of supervision! 

Olivier teaching the school kids how to cook Congolese style. 

One of out billeting families. We stayed with such lovely people. They were all so welcoming and inclusive. 

More photos after on the spot sharing at the church service. Good thing I know how to speak off the top of my head! 

This was on Vancouver Island, visiting with the Pastor of the church in Courtney. 

...and after. The funny thing was, every single one of the leaders had facial hair. That must have been fun stuff to get out! 

...during... 

Ahh, cake eating competitions! Before... 

But it was definitely the quietest, stillest and most attentive that we had them for the whole night! 

Seriously, no kids were harmed in the making of these photos! 

hmmm, is it good to let people know that we did this?! Hehe, it was actually heaps of fun. The whole idea was to see how long you can get someone to stay up there with one roll of duct tape. We didn't actually get anytime, but the other team got 5 sec. 

Nice moves, hey?! 

hmm, this was during our breakdancing workshop. That was an interesting day for feeling incredibly uncoordinated! 

more of RAW 

This was at RAW, so that is ages ago. 

Then these are some more shots of things that have been going on around X-Culture, this is our Sunday family gathering. 

...a Starbucks cup (it looks like they are sitting, right, they are not at all - all tables and chairs are inside)... 

...a really dirty sock... 

...an empty black cherry vanilla coke with a giant loogey in it... 

...someone wearing the biggest hat you seen...
