Noosa

Finally I'm here in Noosa and I love it! I think I prefer small towns over bigger cities like Sydney or Brisbane. It's much more laid back here, and it's easier to meet people. And they have a beach. Went for my first swim yesterday and my bikini nearly came off, so I think I need to find a new one.
Took a walk in Noosa's national park and it gave me some good exercise. I think I'm going to feel it in my legs tomorrow.
Hoping to get a position at the hostel I'm staying at so I can get free food and accomodation. It's a bit scary how money just dissapears here.

Who's that?

Waiting

The wait is starting to annoy me. I want to leave but am still waiting for the bank card and a parcel from Sydney. Wish there was something to do. Right now the weather is sunny but the weather forecast said it would rain and thunder later on today, so I don't want to go to the Gold Coast in that weather. But then again, you can never trust the weather forecast.

I'm bored. It's been bad weather here for the last couple of days so I haven't gone through with my plans to hop on the train towards Gold Coast to check the place out. And there's not much else to do here, feels like I've already done it all.
Today I bought a pair of shorts, so now I can check that off of my list a

Shocked! There's no beach in Brisbane!

They don't seem to like Barbie very much at Bunk.

Pretty pathway at South Bank.

Trying to figure out what to do next. I need to go on an adventure so I can enjoy myself a little and feel that I'm actually in Australia. I'm thinking about leaving Brisbane and heading north as soon as I can pick up my new bank card at Westpac bank. Want to go and explore Fraser Island!

Would like to upload some pictures but can't since this computer don't have a memory card slot for me to use. Internet here is really expensive so I try not to spend too much money on it but the library (where internet is free) is a pretty long way from here and smells like urine. And you have to get in line to use it. I miss my computer :(

G'day!

Writing to you now from Chinatown, Brisbane. The weather here is a bit rainy at the moment but maybe it's all well, because now I can get around to updating blogs and resumes. Not much has happened since I arrived in Australia. Mostly walked around the towns. Stayed at some crappy hostles. The one I'm staying at now is nice though, the best one yet.
