straight to the outback
I arrived two days ago and hopped straight from the airplane into a bus going to Young.



This is the so-called capital for cherry picking and before I could start picking today I experienced quite unexpected situations:

1. In the bus I met 3 guys from Netherlands and one from Quebec, all of us heading for the cherries. When we arrived in Young we had to spend the night in the parkbecause it already was too late in the evening to organize a farm.

In this park there was a pond... and in the pond there was a CROCODILE!!! In the beginning we didn't believe our eyes but as it kept chasing the ducks around... Well, I guess we shouldn't have believed our eyes, eerybody kinda laughed at us and I now think that it was some kind of a lizard in the pond.

2.My first to days in the outback were frickin' cold! If someone had tokd me before I would have laughed in his face... But when we started picking this morning at 6 it was 4 degrees and i hadn't slept all night...

Now it warmed up a lot and i almost used an entire bottle of sunblocker already!
