Today was a very busy day. We begain with a trip to OLI which is a type of college. We then had tea with the premier of Queensland and other Education and Government Officials. This was exiting because we were the Official delegation representing Private Colleges in SC. Afterwards we went to a couple of Catholic schools. It was a full day that left most of us tired and just ready to rest.
