The other day I went with the guys to watch them surf and take pictures. Unfortunately it is school holidays here and so the beaches are very crowded. So crowded in fact that it was extremely difficult to keep track of who was who in the crowd. I also am not very good a photography and thus didn't get a single decent picture out of hundreds.
On the way back from surfing the guys have a tradition of stoping at 7/11 for coffee. Me not being a coffee drinker I got a doughnut. Well I tried to get a doughnut. A couple of days into the trip and my credit card company randomly decided to shut my card down so it got declined and that was plenty embarrassing because I knew that I had plenty of credit left on it. Thankfully it was a quick fix and all that I had to do was hit a button on an email they sent me. Would have been nice if Capital One had paid attention to the travel notice I gave them ahead of time.
Australian Rugby league is big here and that night we watched the Broncos vs Roosters. I think it was a lot more exciting than American football. It was actually kind of fun to watch, unlike football lol.

I do have a few fixed plans and I am intent on getting there (or I will let my hosts down) and I am by no means a good traveler but I hope to become one some day.
