It's my birthday!!!! As of today I can officially shake m head and say "teenagers these days!" … feels good! It is also Australia day, which from what I saw today is just and excuse for everyone in Australia to have the day off work and get bladdered in the pub. Well not everyone got the day off, I for one didn't. I had a 6 hour shift in the café down the road, but it was actually ok I think I am getting used to it now. I am still looking for something b...

We were up at 6am today ahhh! We set of for the most Southernly point of Australia. The only thing about Australia is that everywhere is so far apart so you need to get up ridiculously early to just get to places at a decent time.
