Well I'm back in America. It was a long day of traveling and done with about four hours of sleep for two nights. This whole experience was the trip of a lifetime and probably one of the best, if not the best experience of my life so far. Finished the program with a good grade, great friendships, and some very fond memories.
To everyone in the group, I just wanted to use this to thank you for everything throughout the summer. All the quotes and great memories. I am entirely serious when I say that I'm going to visit you all. I'm going to at least try and get to everyone in your town and hope that you will come to Madison at some point because we'll have a great time anywhere we go.
I can't wait to see where we all go in our lives because I know that we'll all do great things. It was great spending the past month with all of you and I hope you have fun in the second session. Don't let the new group take our place! Though I know it'll be tough to replace us :P
Anyways, the last couple days were devoted to school work and cleaning. We did get to go to Milla Milla Falls, possibly my favorite spot on the entire trip. Tied with Mossman Gorge at the very least. Really really cold water, but once you were in it felt great! We even got to swim underneath the waterfall. It'll be one of my most cherished memories from the whole trip, but the amount of memories I have from this trip is almost innumerable. It was an incredible experience and I wish I could do it again!
The trip home was very sad. It could have been a combination of being over tired and leaving the group and center, but there were lots of tears as we said goodbye to everyone. Bittersweet tears is the best way to describe it. My favorite part about this whole time was how close we all got as friends. It really does feel like a family and many friendships that no matter how long we have between seeing each other will feel like no time has passed. With so many great friends all over the US now, I can't wait to see you all again. Thanks for the memories! See you all real soon to make more.
