Workin'

Yo errrbody!

Will be a little of from now on, sorry. We're working in the warehouse again and we got work until friday. We've calculated that we need to work for at least 7 days - 8 hours per day - in order to get the money for Fraser and Whitsundays together. So we will try to work there as much as possible.

The work itself is so boring... Like... I can't even explain it in words. We stood today for 8 hours, taping together boxes. I'm not even joking. We stood for freakin 8 hours in a row and closed box after box after box after box. But we get money... And we need it. So we will try to stick there for as long as possible. Since we're leaving Sydney the 16th, we're kind of in a hurry!

Tips for backpackers: If you want to save money, buy food in a supermarket such as for instance Coles. Don't buy it in the corner store! One friend went to one of those. You will find that they very often skip writing the price on the items. So this friend brought a 1 L coca cola and one bag of chips for 70 kronor. So you will definitely pay to much for the stuff. Coles is where I buy my food and they have a sale on different things everyday. They have for example canned tuna for 90 cent here, it's cheap, good and works more than fine with some rice and eggs. That's what I've been eating for almost one month!
Also, try and buy as much fruit and vegetables as possible when they're on sale. It is really expensive to be healthy in this country, one apple costs often more than 2 dollars (14 kronor)!

hope you will all have a really nice day/evening. I will probably go for a swim in the pool tonight ;) see ya later!
