August 29

I was really hoping to go lay out on the beach, but it was windy, so instead we went to the swap meet. Then headed to the mall for a bit of shopping and lunch, and to some Outlet stores. Then decided we should head back to Brisbane. I drove for most of it. Quite a different experience on the other side of the road, especially in a stick shift. It's especially weird trying to shift with your other hand, and turn signals, and looking up at the mirrors on your other side, etc. It's hard not to drift to the left of your lane out of habit. So the whole time I was concentrating on staying in the right part of the lane. When we got to the city, it was a bit of a different story. I was OK if I knew where I was going, but it's easy to get flustered when you are trying to figure out where to turn, shift, turn signals, but instead hit the windshield wipers, etc. Oh well, we made it, unscathed.

Then we planned out our Thailand trip a bit, so hopefully we can book tickets soon!!
