A Travellerspoint blog

the last couple of days

So for my birthday we all went out, then Monday night I had practice, then Tuesday night our neighbors made us dinner. We hung out with our neighbors pretty much all night and they bought me card and some flowers for my birthday. so that was really nice. They're a little crazy but they're good people.
Saturday we had our first game, we lost 2-1. the team was not very good, so this should be interesting. We only have 8 players rostered and 2 can't be there this weekend, so I'm not sure how this is going to work out. But hey if it doesn't work out than it is just more time to travel. So we'll see. I'm not sure how it's going to go. We offered to help coach the A3 team which is older ladies that our still good and we're going to hit them grounders and coach the bases for them and stuff. This weekend I coach the A3 team at 12 have a game at 4 and then I rush to work by 6:15, so this should be interesting. I already screwed up my availability before I even started working. oh well!
Meribeth got a job. She is going to be working at a cafe called Spoons which is across the courtyard from my cafe. So that will be fun. There are a few bars in between our cafe's so we'll probably meet up for drinks when we work friday and saturday nights.
We tried going out last night but the buses never came, I guess there isn't much to do around here on Wednesday nights anyways. Part of me stops and thinks why did I leave my car, my friends, and tons of stuff to do every night to come over here. Haha but it's an experience and I'm having a good time.
Meribeth and I went hiking the other day. Oh it was awful. The bus ride took forever, and we went up to hike and apparently all the hikes worth doing were at a different location but we were too far to go to those ones. So we went anyways on one of the other hikes. It was pretty for about 2 minutes and then it was just boring. We turned around and walked back because it was all the same stuff. All we really saw was a wild turkey. Haha we laughed about it though. It was funny.
hmm what else? I held a baby wallaby at the softball fields. This lady takes in all types of animals that are hurt and can't take care of themselves. Well she found an orphaned wallaby (which is a kangaroo but smaller and with a smaller head), and she brought it to the field in a backpack, she said it's like a pouch to him so he didn't mind. She took it out and we all got to hold it. So that was fun.
this week we're going to go over to a house with little kids in it and we're going to carve pumpkins with them. So that should be fun. They've never done it before. Hope we can find pumpkins easily.
Well not much going on in the next couple of days as far as excitement. We have games saturday and sunday and I work all weekend. i'm pretty excited to start working, I think we'll meet some people too so that will be fun.
I am going to have like 3 hours were I have to wait for a friend to get off work tomorrow so I'll try and find internet somewhere over there.
