Beaches and Bicycles

     Christi (our program coordinator) picked G-Unit up at the village today and brought us to Surfer's Paradise to rent bicycles and go on an 8-mile bike tour.  All 12 of us, and Christi, hopped on our lime green bicycles (complete with fanny packs and bells) and rode in a single-file line around the city.  We were quite the tourists, with our purple helmets and cameras, and our Australian friends defnately got quite a kick out of our caravan when we spotted them along the beach.  We rode along the beaches and waterways, all happy to be outside in the sun...in the middle of winter. 

    








     For lunch, we stopped at a Surf Shop on the shoreline.  After being told we could order anything off of the lunch menu, Meadbh actually went through with ordering the "lunch steak".  We all thought Christi's eyes were going to bulge out of her head.  No dessert though, she still owes us ice cream :) G-Unit is quite the cast of characters and we're already looking forward to our next outing together, a rugby game next weekend!
