Life is still good, and we're enjoying this beautiful country down under. On new years eve we went to Beachport to see the fireworks, but after driving for a long time to get there (some of our friends had been drinking a lot so we had to stop every five minutes) we were told that there wouldn't be any fireworks. We had a nice time with friends, so the fireworks didn't really matter that much for us:)
We have been working at the cherry farm for a couple of weeks and two days ago we got our first pay check. We didn't keep track of how much we had earned, so we got a great surprise when we got the check and saw that we had earned a nice amount of money. The last few days have been really warm, somebody told me that it was 47 degrees the day before yesterday, so that makes it impossible to work, and it also makes the cherry trees draw all the water from the fruits to survive and the cherries get ruined. The hottest days we worked from 6am to about 11am and then all we could do was to go home and cool off in a pond that Pete and Kay have made for backpackers to swim in. One of the days we went to Robe to go to the beach as well. It was so warm in the car on the way there that JT almost fell asleep while we was driving. It was absolutely exhausting! But the 1 hour drive to get there was worth it! We went to a beach called Long Beach, and it was so cool!!! We could drive our car down on the beach and park on the beach close to the water. The beach was so long that we could have a big part of the beach for ourselves if we hadn't been to tiered to drive any further. Anyway, it was the most perfect beach I have ever been to :) The water was nice and turquoise-green and the beach was beautiful!!
Today we have the day off so we're heading to Port McDonnell to check out a food and music festival that's suppose to be on the beach there today. Now we're at the library in Mount Gambier to update the blog before heading for the beach.
Our beautiful niece Benedicte had her first birthday January 1st! Happy birthday, angel!!! We wish you all the best in the world :) We love you!!!
Life is good in this moment, and in this moment, and in this moment....
Live life and love it :)
