Well, my time in Australia has come to an end but not without lots of memories, pictures and new friends.  It’s hard to believe just how unique Australia is without writing a long drawn out story, but we will save that for the next issue of the magazine.  During my last week I ended up at the 2016 Nautique Moomba Masters down in Melbourne.  It is the first contest of the year and one of the most unique locations for a contest.  The Moomba Festival is held at the same time with live music, carnival rides, skate contest and more.  After the contest I ended up going up to Sydney for 2 days to be a tourist before catching my flight home.  Be on the look out for the next issue of Alliance Wake Magazine for more photos and stories.
