Because of the car dramas we ended up staying an extra night and only got home today. It was a bit of a bitter end to the weekend because we found out the car is going to be quite expensive to fix. Luckily Corey has a friend who is a mechanic who is going to help us out and hopefully we will be able to save a few dollars. Thank god for good friends willing to help out!

Gotta Love A Long Weekend
This past weekend was a long weekend here in Australia and we decided to take advantage of it by heading to the Sunshine Coast for a few days. The weekend started off rough with our car breaking down on the side of highway just outside of Caloundra. We hired a car for the weekend and despite the rain and wind decided to make the most of the weekend. We visited a couple of markets, the strawberry farm, ginger factory and of course the Eumundi pub. I also managed to get a bit of reading down. I finished 1 book, devoured a second and started a third. A good start to the months reading!
