I woke up early to finish my last module and to give Margaux our lab report (from the rainforest survey) to turn in.<\/p>\n<p>Everyone decided to go to the beach and caught the bus around 10 am\u2026 I decided to be a baller though and ran the 8 kilometers there. It was great. I left there around 12:40ish, got a little lost, and then managed to get there around 1:30. Noosa seems similar to a residential area though and along the sound\/riverbank there were many kayak rental areas &#8211; $5 for a single!<a href=\"http:\/\/auip.files.wordpress.com\/2011\/07\/nzicecream.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-1\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-1004\" title=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/auip.files.wordpress.com\/2011\/07\/nzicecream.jpg?w=300\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"227\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>It was pretty much just a day of relaxation. Some people played Frisbee, others tried <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kayaknoosa.com\/KayakHire\/StandUpPaddleBoards.aspx\">paddle boarding<\/a>, and others just tanned. There\u2019s also a strip of shops and restaurants right next to the beach, like a mini Waikiki, where people can window-shop or just walk around. I highly suggest trying out <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newzealandnatural.com\/\">New Zealand Natural<\/a> ice cream; it\u2019s really good.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some pictures of our free day fun.<a href=\"http:\/\/auip.files.wordpress.com\/2011\/07\/frisbee.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-2\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-1006\" title=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/auip.files.wordpress.com\/2011\/07\/frisbee.jpg?w=300\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/auip.files.wordpress.com\/2011\/07\/dog.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-3\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-1007\" title=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/auip.files.wordpress.com\/2011\/07\/dog.jpg?w=300\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/auip.files.wordpress.com\/2011\/07\/beachturtles.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-4\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-1005\" title=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/auip.files.wordpress.com\/2011\/07\/beachturtles.jpg?w=225\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Adrienne Wilson, 2011 South Queensland student blogger, writes: May 29 We arrived at Noosa beach today!
