John
We woke the next morning, surprisingly warm, aided no doubt
by the few glasses of rum and coke the night before and leaving the heater on
full blast through the night. Question- can you make rum and coke a with pepsi
max? John says hell no, Deirdra says “Jesus its fine…sure cheap rum tastes shit
no matter what you put in it”
And it did taste shit... only getting tastier by the 5th
glass.
I was making breakfast in the hostel when I spotted a huge
vat of seeds, thinking what the hell is this for, I soon realised when I looked
outside and a million huge parrots were descending on the American guy as he
attempted to eat his breakfast outside.
When I called deirdra out to get a photo, the resulting
girly screams I’m sure could be heard in the next town.
Lorne was actually surprisingly nice in the light. And to
top off our introduction to the area we called the number on a poster marked
with the slogan ‘Blazing Saddles’ …and went for a thigh pounding session of
‘scenic’ Horse Riding!
