Albany Highway
This is the
We reached Albany just before it was getting dark so by the time we got checked in to the hostel and moved our bags in the sun was going down and we had a look around. My first impressions of the town were good and were heightened after the pizza. We played some pool then back at the hostel for a bit then saw a listings sheet for the local cinema that was showing Transformers! This was a no-brainer so set off. The cinema didn’t look anything special, from the outside it looked like a fairly standard small town cinema and the foyer was only big enough for the sales desk thing, some sweet shelves and a small queue but the actual screen was actually quite big fair play so I was pleasantly surprised. Transformers is awesome by the way!
The Australians seem to like their films though, they’re very vocal when watching them, there were a lot of ‘yay’s and ‘boo’s at the appropriate parts which I found quite funny, back home people are usually quite quiet until there’s a funny bit worth laughing at.

You are making us all jealous - the sun, the sea the beaches; all we have had here is rain and some parts flooding. Although today so far is dry and sunny - hope it stays that way we have a BB BBQ and charity walk this afternoon! Colin’s doing the BBQ!!

I’m already planning to go out next year with a friend who’s lived out there before.
She said her aunty and uncle moved out there when they were young, and now they have a great life, own several business’s etc.
I’m thinking just move out there, get a 1/2 year work permit, get a job somewhere in a pub or something and just rent a small flat. would be fun, and it’s best to do it when your young because you don’t have so many responsibilities.

A Jet powered Raft huh?
Take care all. Looking forward to some fresh pics.
