Traveling in a fried-out combie On a hippie trail, head full of zombie I met a strange lady, she made me nervous She took me in and gave me breakfast And she said,
Do you come from a land down under? Where women glow and men plunder? Can’t you hear, can’t you hear the thunder? You better run, you better take cover.

Good evening, this is TMK with Part 1 in a series on the vacation status of Cocorosie. As previously reported here, she has made it safely to Australia. Yesterday, Coco and her traveling companion Kassi went to the Lone Pine Sanctuary. There they had the chance to feed kangaroos and wallabies. Coco also had the opportunity to hold a 1 1/2 year old koala. She says it was so so cute and that it's fur was so soft, like wool. She now knows why they sleep so well, being so warm and cozy with their fur. After returning to their hostel, they went to dine at the Hog's Breath Restaurant. The food is really good, although no details on what kind of food it was. That is it for day one from Australia. Stay tuned for Part 2 in our series, when we find out about the further adventures of Elissa in Australia!
Bundeberg is where we will be for tomorrow and the next two nights and then to Rockhampton for three nights. In Bundeberg we are going out to an island in a glass bottom boat i think to do some snorkeling and beach sittin etc. should be a nice stay. in a hotel and everything. hostels are nice but i could use a shower without a buddy right in the stall next to me taking a dump or a "poo" as the aussie's would say er something. ;)
my brother went there and said he really enjoyed the glass bottom boat. He didn't like the snorkeling though. He said the abundant species of exotic fishlife scared the crap out of him. Enjoy your trip!
well i'm now in a little internet cafe waiting for our train to rockhampton. first night in bundeberg we actually were in Bargara. a little seaside town resort thingy. reminded me on naples. but it was so nice and quiet. the whole beach to ourselves. we didn't end up going out to lady musgrove island because it was really windy and rainy. so we went into town and shopped around and spent a lot of time on the beach in the rain! it was awesome. there was this little basin built right next to the beach that was stinger and shark free. hehe. so we swam in that and brought crackers to feed these little reef fish. we would put some crackers in the water with no fish around and then in seconds there were hundreds of them swarming us. eating the crackers and maybe taking a new nibbles of out legs. but it didn't hurt. when we were walking back to our resort there was a huge rainbow covering the whole sky. made me think of someone!
then we stayed in and played trivia at the resort with all the old folks that were staying there it was actually quite fun and kassi and i came in third out of 3 groups! we rocked the house! i love sucking at trivia! miss you all! but not too much. ;) sunshine and beach makes MN hard to miss, but i do.
p.s. did i tell you kassi got slightly attacked by kangaroos at that sanctuary we were at. she is a little bruised but i did have a good laugh at it. ;)
 oh yeah and the train rides are pretty awesome. food and movies and lots of room to move around...much better than the plane rides!
we got to watchh two weeks notice. i love sandra bullock and hugh grant!
In this dirty old part of the city Where the sun refused to shine People tell me there ain't no use in tryin'
Now my girl you're so young and pretty And one thing I know is true You'll be dead before your time is due, I know
Watch my daddy in bed a-dyin' Watched his hair been turnin' grey He's been workin' and slavin' his life away Oh yes I know it
(Yeah!) He's been workin' so hard (Yeah!) I've been workin' too, baby (Yeah!) Every night and day (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!)
We gotta get out of this place If it's the last thing we ever do We gotta get out of this place 'cause girl, there's a better life for me and you

Air Supply Just As I Am
I’ve had a lot of big dreams
I’ve made a lot of bad moves
I know you could walk away
But you never do
I’ve met a lot of cold hearts
I’ve learned to smile and deceive
I know I’m hard to be around
But you never leave
I’m not easy to understand
But you hold out your hand
And you say you love me
Just as I am
You always treat me
The best that you can
You say you want me, need me
Love me, baby
Just as I am, just as I am
I’ve made a lot of heartaches
I’ve found a lot of closed doors
When all the others turn away
You love me more
You love me more
I’m not easy to understand
But you hold out your hand
And you say you love me
Just as I am
You always treat me
The best that you can
You say you want me, need me
Love me, baby
Just as I am, just as I am
I want to love forever
To keep our world together
And be the best that I can be
Baby, every time the world caves in on me
And you say you love me
Just as I am
You always treat me
The best that you can
You say you want me, need me
Love me, baby
Just as I am, just as I am
