My cousin arrived!

I´m very very very excited, because my cousin from Finland arrived yesterday. Anna has been my best friend and my best cousin for years. So it was kind of touching to meet her after few years. This trip is Annas first trip to Australia, so she was really excited, too. It was a little weird to meet her again. But I´m extremely happy she is here.

Right away when she arrived we went to the Bondi. It was lovely learn to know Anna again. Even if she is the same old Anna, I wanted to know everything about her new stuffs and Finland. We talked a long long time, and laughed and remembered the past. For example when all my friends made lovely farewell party to me just before flying here. It was really nice! :)

And something not so nice happened. Anna hasn´t ever been a very good swimmer, but although we went to swim. And of course some kind of current took her and moved to the open sea. It wasn´t very bad situation, but still scary. I know that I have to swim gently straight on the shore and i did it. Somehow I was able to swim enough close to beach. But Anna didn´t know how to do. Luckily she was calm and knew to wave her arm. One of those handsome lifeguards rescued her with some kind of surfboard. It was so cool! It wasn´t the first time that I have seen them at work, but always so amazing. I really respect them. The save peoples life!

Anna was a little bit frightened so we decided to went home. Luckily she was already able to smile at evening :) She said she doesn´t mind about the situation but she is going to be more careful while swimming.

All´s well that ends well! And good night.

Pitiful, rainy day.

Yesterday I and my friend Ashley planned to go to the beach today. But we didn´t do it ´cause it was raining too hard. We are not made of sugar, of course, but still..who woulg go to the beach when it is raining? No one. Except lifeguards.
It was irritating. Always have take into account the weather.

So we went to the Leichhardt marketplace (with brollies of course) and bought few liters of cherries. I love cherries! Especially fresh cherries when they´re just picked up. Yummu for my tummy :) We sat down for a short while under a big, dense tree and ate these berries slowly and feasting. Then I suddenly fancied a coffee. We went to nearest cafée, I ordered my coffee and took my wallet. But.. I didn´t have enough money! :D It was SO embarrassing! Yeah, no money, no funny! :)

The rest of the day I spent at Ashleys home. We had very fun time there!
