still jet-lagged. need sleep.

After a rocky start yesterday with lack of sleep and a breakfast that reallyonly consisted of meat we headed out to the city on Monday. We went around a load of hostels looking on their notice boards for vans, then we ended up going to The Campervan Man and fell in love with a Toyota Hiace that looks as though it has a fairly good chance of coping with travelling to Cairns and back. It doesnt have a ton of camping gear like some of the ones other backpackers are selling, but its been checked by a mechanic we can trust (hes also supercute and reminds Barbara of Maarten her pet boy who fixes her car back home). We got the price down from 5500 to 5000, and we're going back today to pick it up and sort out the registration papers etc.

So its been pretty busy! Adelaide is a nice city, actual centre part is quite small, but the suburbs are fucking immense because everyone has a huge amount ofland around their houses. We're looking forward to seeing a bit more of the surrounding areas once we get more mobile, like the beaches and mountains and pretty shit like that. Also, wineries.
