Hola mi chicos, just dining on some Pop Rocks, awaiting my dinner (for those not in the know, Pop Rocks are also known is Oz as Magic Gum - hahahaha remember that Chez? - and as the urban myth goes, will cause your insides to explode if consumed with cola soft drinks). Have finally got the internet hooked up at the apartment, so I can start uploading my Kingston photos, to give everyone an idea of where I live, and what life is like here (suspiciously like Melbourne, but with more snow). It did snow today - for about all of 2 minutes, but hey that counts in my book. It's funny how quickly one acclimatises to the cold. Now it's like "hmmmm, balmy and three degrees above zero - time for a t shirt".
Waitied in vain for the kiddies at Halloween, but unfortunately we're not on a street that has a lot of houses, so we didn't see them. Instead we went for a walk to check out everyone else's pumpkins. Ours was carved by yours truly the night before, and all of the seeds roasted nicely and eaten (mmmm, definitely worth trying, highly recommended to all). So
now we have a huge stash of candy that I'm trying to hide from myself and a pumpkin that won't fit in the compost bin. The christmas ads have started though, so I'm starting to feel more at home.
Will try to put some pics on now.
Birthday greetings to: Greg, Oliver and Kye!
