Hope everyone had a lovely Valentine's Day! We celebrated pretty low key, I decorated the house with heart formations of tea candles and made a fancy dinner while Marco bought me some yummy choccies (flowers are so expensive here, i think we were a bit spoiled living so close to Holland, largest flower exporter in the world!)
On the weekend we celebrated Chinese New Year with Marco's Thai/Chinese Co-worker at the most amazing asian buffet restaurant I've ever experienced in my life! They had everything from chicken feet and beef tongue to langostines, dim sum and sushi! And it all tasted soooo good (...ok i did skip the chicken feet) this place will definitely be on the TO Do list for visitors! And it's cheap! Another place going on that list will be Concord Mills, an absolutely huge Outlet Shopping Centre that looks more like a theme park, that we finally found after first driving 1 hour south when we were supposed to go 1 hour north. So 2 1/2 hours later ( i'd like to note here that Marco was the navigator :-P) we both bought gear from places like Gap, Guess, Banana Republic and Levis and definitely didn't even reach $100!! 4 hours later...knackered...
I gotta say i enjoy driving over here a lot more than in Germany, i think the roads and wider, traffic is sparser and people aren't going so fast i guess. The Drivers themselves seem kinda weird though, so many abandoned cars on the sids of highways and loads of vehicles that look like they should rather be abandoned...or even better, defected! Petrol is unbelievably cheap by international comparison: approx. AUD$0.60 per Liter!!
