Back to the mainland!

So I'm back in Adelaide, took the first bus I could after I arrived in mebourne on the ferry, and in a short 11 hrs I was here.... So to recap, boarded the ferry about 6:30pm Sunday, arrived in Melbourne about 7am, made my way to the bus station in the tram, and caught the 9am bus to Adelaide arriving at about 7:30pm. A total of 25 hours in constant travel!!! Makes me wonder why I didn't take the 3hour flight for about the same money, hahaha
Ferry ride was a little disappointing, food was expensive, beer was about the same(which is crazy expensive everywhere) and the entertainment made me cry, first I played some slots in the casino and lost then watched "Marley and me" in the cinema... Saddest movie EVER, totally know how it had to end but thought some how it would end happy. Not much else to do so went to bed... Well to be correct I went to chair.
So I've been exploring Adelaide the past couple days, have my next tour starting Saturday and am very excited! Been trying really hard to get my final tour arranged but Im running out of money and the tour costs basically exactly as much as I have left... But it doesn't include all meals!! And I still have a couple days here and there I need to pay for a room. So I have to cancel one of the parts... But they all are basically top of the list things. Tour the Daintree Rainforest and Cape Tribulation. 5 day great barrier reef scuba diving course (3 days living on a boat, includes 9 dives). Sailing around the Whitsunday island. 4wd safari on Fraser island. Already cancelled 2days at surf camp :-p.
So we'll see what happens, it's all so awesome I can't pass it up, but it's expensive travelling, I don't know how some of these people do a year or two backpack... Seriously I've met a lot of people that have been here since last year!
