Even though I wanted to sleep in today I couldn’t… Damn early mornings treeplanting.

This morning I headed down the hill from Christinas place back to the hostel, I needed to find out for sure whether Meg would be able to join me on my trip to mexico, she had a job interview but it only pays $9 a hour. Its such a shame but we both agreed that I should go and start the journey without her and if in some miraculous way she stumbled across a thousand dollars she could come meet up with me.

I called Deb (My Chef in Big White) at around midday and caught up with her for a few drinks around downtown, I again bumped into Lindsey and we joined her and her mother for drinks at the fed.

We got a bit tipsy and grabbed some more food at the mango place I had eaten at the past 2 days… wonton soup for $4 isnt bad at all.

I picked up the rest of my luggage at Keelyns place to give to Deb to store for the next 9 months until I returned to Canada then headed back to the hostel where I chilled and napped in the TV room. It’s a great place to hang out even though im not staying there.

I cooked for Sarah (a Swiss girl I had met a few days ago) and Aaron (Canadian that’s good friends wth Meg), just a quick stirfry and headed on my bike back to Christinas place.

The Cycle was difficult, it was all uphill but I suppose I need to get myself in shape for my upcoming trip.
