Full of suckers who don't know about Jungle Beach 30 minutes thatta way. We've come in to use the HBO channel and saddle tomorrow's train at 5am.
I do have 1 story though. Our plan was to sleep in and go grab brunch around 11. That plan went really well until 6am when I was wide awake and really hungry by 9. Desh was fine - so I decided to go brave it at a local cafe in a hole in a wall down the road. Of course it was near impossible to communicate - but after a bit of pointing I got a plate of rice with Pork, a chicken drumstick, veges and soup for $3NZ.. I also had an audience of locals who politey sat and watched me eat. Well, I came back to the room hyperactive which lead me to believe they lace their food with MSG - sure enough an hour later I got hungry again and my mood crashed big time.. and kinda remained for the day. Needless to say I went for a 2nd breaky to try recover at 12 for a cheesey omelette and fresh mango juice... mmmm
I decided to show you this instead of the beach - cause you probably would have seen a similar one in a brochure for the Gold Coast.
I thought I would post a pic of the room we have to give an idea of how we live. This is $20US - you can get a room in this town for $7 with no TV and no space - but this is a newish hotel with rooftop swimming pool - aircon - balcony - TV with cable - Bath - and 2 double beds.. which Desh has used as an opportunity for alone time and star fishing.
