I hate this weather! except thunderstorms



I really really hate how stinking hot it is here. I would so much rather the 5 degree weather Cooma has been having. Except I love the thunderstorms! We had another one tonight that mum and I got caught in as we walked to the supermarket. Only across the road, and we were saturated! I am sure the thunder is 50 times louder here than back home. Maybe it's just because it has so many buildings to echo off!

Anyway we have being doing touristy things yesterday and today. We caught a tram just to see where it would take us, explored parks, went up the Bank of China tower, and explored our local streets a little more.

Today we caught a bus to Stanley, a little town at the bottom of my island (yes, I can call it "my island" now). It is a beach little town with some great markets. That's what the photo is of. We spent quite a few hours there, and came home with heaps of stuff we probably don't need!

And I am no longer friendless over here!! Chris is back, and we had dinner together last night. It is good to have him back!
