We had guests last night! Eddie was out jogging when he came across 4 German tourists whose van had broken down at the Gailey Road roundabout. They had just arrived from Sydney and were on their way to Cairns! Apparently the breakdown caused a huge traffic jam and Eddie had not only helped with directing traffic, he had offered the Germans our living room to spend the night.

So Alex, Yelto, Nicole I and Nicole II came to our place, and we got to know them a little bit more over pizza and Poker Star on TV.

We had to leave them cos we were going out fishing. We got home late so we woke up late this morning. They were already gone and had left a note.



What a totally unpremeditated night.

I couldn't have been more proud of my boyfriend, he's always ever so willing to lend a helping hand. You wouldn't do this in Malaysia lah of course, cos your plasma would probably disappear before midnight together with your "guests"... but these people were genuinely in need of help, and even though we didn't do much, I'm glad we could help :)

Some photos from fishing...

My first Jew!

We caught lots of Jews and Threadies on soft plastics, but only kept the Threadies cos Jews don't taste very nice.

Gotta run now!
