Wow
Wow wow wow wow wow
Today i took a day off from picking Strawberries and went to Kettering where the Australian Antarctic Division Head Quarters are. They have a museum it was really interesting and had clothes you could dress up in in a huge dressing up box! so groovy! Drank tea in the cafe downstairs and looked at lots of pretty pictures of ice. sadly no postcards or i would be busy writing them rather than e-mailing.
So i'm in my 3rd week of Strawberry picking, it's going good and i'm scoffing a fair few as i go along, so getting plenty of fruit. The hostel is a bit busy as more and more peple are arriving and waiting for apple season to start apparently you can make rally good money picking apples but you have to carry your ladder from tree to tree and pick into a bag which hangs around your neck. sounds like to much hard work for me.
Oh the Fire alarms are malfunctioning so they have been going off 6 or 7 times a night for the last few days, very sleepy and taking lots of afternoon naps.
Anyhoo not a lot of news as i haven't been up to much while here. I'm off to Adelaide on Tuesday to visit Liam for a bit and hopefully find another fruit picking job quite quickly.
