A lot has happened this past week that I want to tell you about and I really have no idea where to start.
The other day we wrestled baby cows (calves. Yes I know that they are called that) and gave 'em medicine and stuff. Me and Chris were in charge of chasing them into a little cage and then Mark and Sam gave them the medicine. It was easier said than done though. We had to yell, push and force them in the direction we wanted.
It turned out quite funny though because as you can imagine, me and Chris had some problems getting them to go where we wanted. Chris also got electrocuted and accidently broke a rib on one of the calves when he tried to push her into the cage. Ouch. Poor cow. Chris also got shat one which I found hilarious.
This week we also went on a booze cruise on the nearby river. The "ship" was more like a barge but it had all the essential; A motor, a roof, an esky (cooler) and a barbie (barbeque or BBQ whatever you prefer). On the boat were friends of Sam and Amanda, Scott and Di (the owners), Sam and Amanda themselves and of course their three kids. We had an amazing time and a fair number of beers was poured down out throats.
It has also been a week of facts. Me and Chris have discovered that you can in fact knock out a cow in one blow. Another interesting fact is that they are also great swimmers. "The more you know"!
Last thing is this; I have now officially seen two, wild, dangerous, snakes in Australia. First one was the death adder on Fraser around 8 months ago (Has it really been that long?) and now, A red-bellied black snake. Yeaaah.
These flies ARE DRIVING ME INSANE. If I had a button that killed all the flies in the world I would press it three times for good measure, even though it meant the death to most birdlife. I don't give a shit. They should all die in a fire and take the mosquitus with them.
Talk to you's later!
Oh, and here's a painting for good measure!
PS. Till Farmor och Farfar, Mamma och Pappa, Fredrik, Per, Viktor och allas respektive samt vänner och bekanta; Jag saknar er och älskar er! Planen är att komma hem i mitten av Juni. Ses då! (Man vet ju i o för sig aldrig hur länga jag stannar, men det tar vi då!)
Johannes, glöm inte kebabpizzan när jag kommer hem.
