March 13 - Australia: Brisbane, Queensland

Well, we didn't do very much today.  We both went for runs this morning, and then kind of lazed around until lunchtime.  Then we went to Kelvin Grove Parts and Service to drop off the truck.

But first, we had to drive around all of Brisbane to find a petrol station with a Diesel pump.  Easier said than done.  We must have driven around for 45 minutes before finally finding a Shell Station.  What, does no one need gas here?  So after getting lost and finding our way back again, we finally made our way to the mechanic.  

Then Bruce called us a cab and we went back to the apartment.  We feel a bit lost without our car, but that's pretty ironic.  75% of our trip has been car-less, but now that we've become used to having one we don't know what to do without it.  Pretty silly, actually.

At any rate, we didn't do much after that.  Jon's on antibiotics because his cold has turned into a virus.  (We've only dragged these vials of antibiotics around the world. It's about time we actually used some!).  So we spent the day reading and relaxing.  

For dinner, we made some pasta sauce with fresh veggies and fresh parmesan.  The fresh parmesan, by the way, makes the dinner.  We're convinced now.
