Tutunup diaries vol 9

When you find yourself dancing salsa with a bush, then it must be a clear sign, you need time off. 

We're most probably done with all the plucking now and back to hourly wages and different jobs!

Tuesday was Marions birthday. Clair cooked some awesome food, we had dinner together and headed to the shed for pool and wine.

We drew Marion a bday card 




Birthday-girl!



Wednesday I finally got to see "Hunger Games: Catching fire". It was visually stunning and tragic. Compared to the first movie adaption it is a hundred times better. More real, more following the book and more emotion and heart. 

Used our favorite means of transportation for going to the cinema, as it was in Busso - hitchhiking. It proved to be even more successful than ever before. We may possibly have a job in Melbourne, whenever we reach there. At least a decent chance of a good start. Thank you Daniel!

Coming back a guy in a tow truck collected us and said he can take us half way, in the end still dropped us home. Thankfully! It was freezing outside!! Yesterday had all the four seasons in it. Chilly morning, warm early afternoon, unbearably hot late afternoon and a deadly cold evening. He also warned us of creepy people and sharks.

Speaking of sharks. We still haven't dropped our plan to learn to surf although everybody tells sharks are more and more active. Bruce gave us great tips what to do against sharks. Firstly, try not to look like a seal while sitting on the board, e.g: don't wear black for starters. And secondly, if a shark comes just poke it in the eye and it most probably leaves you alone. It's probably better in theory than in practice ("Hey 5-m-long shark, hold on a bit, let me swim around you and poke you in the eye! Well, lets just hope we don't meet any!)

Ibiza, Spain

 June 2023 Last time we were on a work-trip to Brussels, decided to take advantage of cheap Ryanair mid-Europe flights and flew to Ibiza for a long weekend. Had been wanting to check this party-hub out for some time. It's dreamy, gorgeous, vibrant, fun and quite expensive. So, in my opinion, a long weekend is exactly a right amount of time to be spent there!
