Another day in Perth

So, I haven't written in awhile, because, well, we haven't been doing much. We are still in Perth and Shane is a bit over Australia. He doesn't like it here nearly as much as he thought he would. He took a small road trip a few weeks ago up to Coral Bay and really liked it there. He is planning to go next week on a 2 1/2 week train trip up to Alice Springs and Darwin. So, he is quite excited about that. I think he hasn't really liked it here cause he is bored.

I have been working a lot, so I stay busy. I am working at IGA still as a checkout chic and it's a lot of fun. I get to see the best and worst of Perth:) Last week there was a big fair here that they call the Perth Royal Show. It's huge and full of rides, booths, bad food..and all the usual stuff. I helped some guys I know here at the booth they set up there for their company. It was a lot of fun.

I'll try to put up some pictures soon of Shane's trip up to Coral Bay and maybe some photos of us and the friends we have met here. We are going down south this weekend to help out on the convention grounds/farm. Shane is excited cause he gets to go kangaroo hunting down there on the farm. However, I think I am going to pass on killing the roos. They are way too cute! I'll put up some pictures next week of the farm and all of us down there too.

As I mentioned before, Shane is leaving at the first of Nov. to head home. Looks like I will be here awhile though. I am going to Vietnam and Camodia in Nov. and Dec. for 3 weeks so I can apply for a new visa to come back into Australia. They have just approved 12 month working holiday visas for Americans that goes into affect Oct. 31st, so I have to leave the country to apply. I'll go and visit my friends/roommates that I lived with in Korea. They are in Vietnam now, so I will get to spend my birthday with them. I'm so excited! Then, I'll come back to Perth and stay here until April. After April, things are up in the air...I'll keep you updated until then though.
