Pancakes Among a Sunrise

So today steph, her roommate, and I got up at 5 am and went to the beach to watch the sunrise. it was so beautiful eventhough it was extremely hard to wake up that early and it really affected me the rest of the day. we brought along some pancake mix and maple syrup and made pancakes on the bbq's at the park next to the beach. It was quite lovely and very scrumptious!


Watching the sunrise is such a remarkable thing, from the colors illuminated throughout the sky, to the quickness of its rising as well as, the power of heat that is felt as it ascends to trade spots with the moon. The australian sun is nothing to mess with. It will fry you if you are not careful and are amongst its powerful rays for too long, yes, i have had a few of these experiences. But nonetheless, it is still breathtaking to watch something that happens everyday and that most people are not up to witness. It just made we want to lift my hands and praise God for his remarkable creation and his unfailing Grace.


Also, at nexus this week, they through us a going away mini party. they gave steph and i a little package with some australian goodies which was so thoughtful. But best of all they made us the best "Australian Cake" EVER...it consisted of a tower of lemmingtons, with chocolate koalas, and timtams. So Creative and extremely yummy!
i was very much impressed but really sad to leave such caring people!
