Down Day

sunny 12 °C

Not much going on today around sleepy j-bay. No waves today so not much to do. Cold front is coming tonight and the reports are saying 10 foot waves for tomorrow so I am stoked!! I slept until about 1 o’clock in the afternoon about 5 in the morning your time. I have never slept past like 9 so it was weird ha-ha. Went to town today to go to the bank to exchange money. They accused me of having counterfeited (sp?) money because of the colors on all the new bills and I had old ones as well so they were confused. Everything is so cheap here. It is 7 rand to the dollar. Good steak at the grocery store cost about 2 dollars and a six pack of beer cost like 3, not like I would know anything about that though. I will probably be in j bay for another two weeks then head up the coast for a week or so then on to Bali. I am going to ride my bike into town tomorrow so I will take some pictures and post them. Until then Chow, Nick

Didn't know about the British driving rules, would have been better advice than the pretzels. $3.00 isn't cheap for a 6-pack and exactly what kind of animal was the $2 steak from? Stay well or rather "sick". We are enjoying your writing. Love U.K. & A.K.

Hey Nick!! I love the pictures you posted... the beach looks so beautiful! Seems like you are already having so much fun! Well I just wanted to tell you that I tried to e-mail you today but it wouldn't go through. I think I might be typing the address in wrong. My e-mail is Nicole8633@aol.com. Maybe it'll work when I reply to yours. Well I miss you so much! Glad you're having fun!! xoxo
