Hello World

Almost a week into the Australia journey we have a blog!  All the lavish dreams of a nice hosted site with a cool domain name using WordPress have gone to the wayside, as time for that sort of thing is fleeting.  Still getting settled over here, job search is on going but starting, as of today, to look promising.  Currently staying at the Arts Factory in Byron Bay.  The campground and whole complex is real hippy-dippy but has a good vibe so we decided to stay longer then initially planned.

We hit Byron Bay at the worst time imaginable, the town is littered with almost 20,000 schoolies.  Schoolies are all the kids who just graduated from High School and now traditionally spend two weeks mucking it up in various locals around Australia.  Byron Bay happens to be one of them.  Schoolies week is like spring break but with barely legal 18 year old instead of college students.

Currently checking out options wwoofing in case jobs picking fruit take longer then expected to get.  It is slightly harder to get good harvest jobs then I initially thought.
