We had a bit of a lie in before getting up and showering. It was still a bit rainy but not as bad as yesterday, so we walked into the city and spent a few hours just wandering around, looking in the shops and markets etc. It is quite a nice city really, not a lot tourise-wise to see but probably good to live in.
On the way back to the hostel at 4ish, we stopped at Coles (a supermarket) and did a shop. I have bought some pasta, cereal and other bits to try and last me a while. I wanted to get wholemeal pasta to be healthy, but it was $2.25 compared to 59c for the same amount of own brand white pasta, so I got that. I also bought a cool bag for a couple of dollars, so that I can transport my food from place to place and hopefully save a lot of money.
Back at the hostel we made dinner (I had pasta with a bit of tomato paste, onions, mushrooms, a chicken oxo cube and cheese - it was surprisingly tasty!)
There were two good films on in the hostel cinema; The Bucket List with Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman, and Coyote Ugly. Everybody cried at the Bucket List!
After the films I went back to the room, caught up with my scrapbook and did a bit of reading. I'm reading Perfume: Story of a Murderer. I've seen the film so thought I'd read the book when I saw it for sale in a second hand bookshop. It's a bit twisted but good.
Off to Surfers Paradise tomorrow!
