From Australia – August 8th

From Australia – August 8^th,  Wednesday.  Day 11 

And your bird can sing

ホームステイをしている家庭は、オーストラリアでも有数の美しい自然に囲まれた地域にあります。プールがあり、様々なペットが一緒に生活しています。朝に夕に美しい鳥が鳴き、夜は眩いばかりの星空。東京では絶対、体験できない生活です。

Moderate sea breezes bring some clouds here this morning.  But sunny and fine.  It was 16℃, minimum with a little bit warm air.  It will be reportedly going up to 27℃ in the afternoon.  Weather tells us the end of winter season in Cairns and slowly changing into spring, which refers to the time for us to go back to Japan is coming.

Otsuma Nakano students are staying with the Australian families in their houses.  The houses are surrounded with great nature of Northern Queensland of Australia. Some of the houses are in massive tropical rainforests, and some are on the middle of hills with amazing and fantastic views. And the others are with many pets.

Wake up in the morning with colorful birds’ singing and go to bed under the incredible night sky full of bright stars.  Spend time with various pets in their houses such as snakes, turtles, horses, and Guinea pigs as well as colorful birds. You can never go through these experiences. These are sure to be invaluable and unforgettable ones.

And of course, you are the most precious being of all.  You can sing!
