The Worst Internet in Australia, Red-Eyed Pigeons and Camels

This is Jess, Jess says hi! Clap for Jessie, Jessie die (thought it's too bad that I'm already dead)

I am in....what is this place?....Monkey Mia now and the weather is nice (I'm right next to the beach-I can see it through the door thats next to me-and the sun is very, very bright) and I've been travelling up the coast for 6 days now (without internet might I add) The computer that I'm typing on at the moment is a pie terminal (no it is not made of pie) and the keyboard is tiny (smaller than a laptops) and the keys are so old that the letters have actually worn off so I would be stuffed if I didn't already know where all of the keys are! I am also proud to say that I have now found a computer with internet that is both slower (way, way slower) and more expensive than my home computer :P

My sister took a ride down the beach on a camel before, I ran and hid behind the jetty because camels are my arch-nemisis. My parents tried to get me on one but they failed, miserably.

Yesterday at the roadhouse that we stopped at to get fuel I saw a large flock of red-eyed pigeons and I immediately thought 'oh no, the Volturi are after me!' Luckily they weren't and I wasn't savaged by vampire pigeons.

The caravan has survived it's trip up-amazingly-but I'm not sure if it will survive on the way back down! My sister gets really annoying when she's bored-although I do too-and she was throwing food at me today-which I promptly threw back. In an attempt to stave off the boredom I have also now read the host a grand total of 4 times-yes, it is a good book-and now I'm hoping that there will be a sequil.

I have hust realised that the browser type that I am using is Mozilla Firefox and I actually like good old Microsoft's Internet Explorer better. I think it's just more practical and you can do just about anything that you want with it-unlike this thing which I cant seem to figure out/use tabs/open another window/refresh the page/make the window smaller/adjust the size of the window at all!

I hope to see some dolphins tomorrow otherwise this holiday will have been my worst one in history. Maybe I'll get to see a dugong too, that would make my day!

...On another note, I HAVEN'T DONE ANY HOMEWORK AT ALL YET/SCIENCE STUDY/MATHS STUDY/ENGLISH/ANYTHING!!!! I am so dead. And someone behind me just ran across the room, tripped on a patch of water and slammed their head into the metal kitchen table, where's the doctor?...

I better go do everything else that I have to do before my internet time runs and out and maybe come back to this later/tomorrow.

-Jess the dead-

P.S There is a large sailing ship on the horizon at the moment and it reminds me distinctly of the Black Pearl, ahoy there!
