Last week I went to Fiji the weather worked in our favour for the most part. We got really lucky. It rained for 3 weeks straight before we got there. While landing you could see the floods. On the main island people tied their cows to the train tracks so they wouldn't wonder off into the flood water. You could see a lot was destroyed... main islands get hit the hardest I forget why I read it somewhere... we got to our island luckily the boat was running that day if we were going further out we probably wouldn't have been able to go.
While there Stacy and I went scuba diving it was a little different from the GBR more untouched. Saw clown fish swam threw a tunnel.. swam threw schools of fish. We also got massages.
I finally got to drink out of a coconut! Found one on the ground and had one of the Fijians teach me how to open it and get the meat out.
We took off early because we felt that the bad weather was starting to come back plus the first hotel really sucked.... by the time we spent money on food and taxis better off to just go home.
Yesterday I went to Big Day Out in Sydney. It's a huge music fest kinda like Lollapalooza of Australia. It was sold out for months but one of our friends got a job selling merch and had a ticket to get rid of.

I really wanted to go to this one but didn't think I'd find a ticket. It's supposed to be the best of all the all day concerts they have.
As you can tell the last couple of weeks have been pretty expensive... the bank is starting to hurt gotta start saving again.
