"Another day older and deeper in debt"

 Almost got through yesterday before someone discovered it was my birthday....just another day in paradise. Day 5 down here in Australia with Wayne on Dances with Dragons. Getting used to the time change, but they need daylight savings. Bright sunshine at 5:30 am. Now 7 am and its like noon.  We provisioned Friday at a small strip center with an IGA supermarket and a real butcher shop next door. Wow....their lamb was to die for. $150 bucks later and we had all the meat needed for a few weeks. Lamb for Joyce and I and beef for Wayne. We did these awesome cut to order  thick lamb chops last night....worth waiting my 68 yrs for. Many more lamb dinners to come over the next 3 months.
     Sunday was spent on a bus trip to Lookout Point, with looooots of walking. Afraid I looked like the proverbial tourist. Big floppy hat, sunburned  arms and legs reading the bus schedule. Joyce will do the pictures. We did see our first Koala bear up in the wrong kind of tree. Stopped at a dive center to get dive info for Joyce.  Lunch in a beach type bar. I had their "House Burger"  ..  hamburger, lettuce, tomato, fried onions, caramelized slice of pineapple, slice of a beet and a special sauce. Eat your heart out McDonalds. Will let Joyce do the pics...thats all for now.
