The New City
Slowly we´re getting to know this new city of ours. The small main-street with the pub, library and the small shops. The shopping centres and huge grocery stores. The river and ocean up close. Everybody either does fishing or motorcross as a hobby. Beaches around every corner, the marina 2 minutes from mainstreet, the huge Spinnakerpark out on the marina cape, Barney park and city beach, the mountains surronding. Is truly a working city though, big industrial buildings is the mark of the town.
Caravanparks all jammed. People seem to live here during weeks and back home during weekends. The guys are all off to work. I´left with the other housewifes, who happily wanna chat on, and on, and on, everytime I happened to walk buy. Have other company in the little birds who comes for a crumble of our old bread, been real housewifie cooking and cleaning, cozy to just pick with a little of everything. Altought mostly reading in the shadows of the palmtrees. Heat is barley standable during the days.
Currently about 20k from the city centre at Tannum Sands/Boyne Island. The closest spot we could find. However, if everything goes the way we want we have a unit of our own soon. Drove past an empty rental one yesterday, spoke to the real estate agent anda viewing is booked for tomorrow. Ridicculoisy expensive, Sydney-pricing cause of all the workers I bet.
To top it off, I have too two interviews before this weeks comes to an end. Eveything just happens so fast and goes so well. Hard to belive last week that we would be sitting here now. Back then we were still broke backpackers deperate for money, out on a milking farm.
Guess you stand like us, bit speeachless whitout being able to stop smiling, when you realize one of your dreams is comming thru, and you are living in it.
Monday we spent driving true Tannum Sands and laying on the Mainbeach

Spinnaker Park out by the Marina, the first morning i Drove Henrik to work I went for a walk watching the ships come to life after the long weekend while the sun rose.
