Settling In

Yesterday it was time to hit the pavement and start looking for a place to live. We had two showings set up in the morning, but thanks to Melba we ended up way off course and missed the first one. After that we literally walked the whole of Surfers and just went into any building that we liked the look of to see if they had any furnished apartments available. It was a long day of looking and walking in the hot sun. Found a few place we liked, but some are higher then our intended budget.
Today is a chill day. Joel left this morning at six am to go golfing. I'm sitting outside on our huge patio enjoying the morning and going to be reading my Aussie Cosmo. Later we're going to drive down to Burliegh Heads, another suburb of Gold Coast City. As it's Saturday maybe we'll do something cool tonight.
I'm finally able to upload a few more pictures, so here's an update.

The beach at Surfers Paradise.


The view from our hotel of downtown Surfers. At night all the building get lit up.


Day one's grocery receipt. Aldi is not as fancy as what I'm used to at home. There is no cereal that I eat at home here! Have to be adventurous...
