Hi Christine,
Just stumbled across your blog while googling "gelati"... wow! I had fun looking @ all your Sydney pics, and Melb from last year (where the gelati reference was!) Love the pics- it gives me a virtual tour of all the places I never get to (even though I live in Melb. Guess I'm mainly referring to the Sydney trip!).
My blog has a ton of words as opposed to your ton of pics! Thought I'd drop in as I'm a nurse, and I saw you're studying medicine, and also, I'm a Christian!! Next time you come to Melb, please bring your friends and check out my church- Enjoy Church- it's probably about 20 minutes drive out from the CBD, but you'll absolutely love it, I promise!!! Check it out on the web: www.enjoychurch.com.au
Where do you go to church??? Not planning any Adelaide trips in the near future, but good to be prepared anyway!!!
God bless!!
Juliet.
