Day two!

First beach!

sunny 28 °C

Jenna and me woke up about 8am and was too scared to use the showers,due to company of a few bugs lol so was reduced to washing with wipes on our first proper day! We then got breakfast at the cafe next door to our Hostel, still not aware of exactly how much we were paying for things without a calculator lol, everything seemed to be very expensive, especially for the sandwich with a dash of mayo we just brought for 5 dollars! Anyway we set off into town checking out the shops, which were mostly selling beach wear and couldn't resist the temptation of buying a sarong, and hat (as mine i had taken with me was a little too crocodile dundee!). All the way through the town we were aiming to find a bus stop, to take our first trip down to Trinity beach. We arrived at Trinity beach expecting clear waters and white sand, but it was the opposite, apparently they are further down, but the beach was still amazing i could have sat down for hours just looking at the view of the mountains on the horizon, and listening to the sound of the sea (how cheesy does that sound) but sooo true, I was also wishing everyone that i am close to could be there to see how amazing it was! We decided to give the sun a rest and head to the beach side cafe, I ordered up fish and chips lol and Jenna had a ham sandwich! We will have a better menu to tell you about soon i promise, looking forward to kangaroo, and crocodile.
Later on we arrived back in town, and bought some food to cook in the Hostel as we hadn't mingled with anyone yet, and this would be saving on the pennies! It had been a long few days and by the time we had walked back to the Hostel (about 6pm) Jenna and Me fell asleep and woke around mid-night. I decided this was a great time to ring my Mum and let her know i was safe, and to pass on the message. It was great to speak to her (love you Mum, everybody!), only wished i could have spoke longer, and to everyone i knew to tell them all my news, but as it is not cheap to phone home, it's not possible. thank god for Travelers point and email) I also phoned Jonathon to see how he was, and to catch up as i missed him too. Think i realized today how long I will not be home for so was a bit sad, but excited to see whats ahead! : )
