So, after searching Orange we have found that the orchards are saturated with pickers. In fact the only picking job we located was not even close to steady. We had to move on.
We stopped back in Katoomba and to make a long story short… drama. A very confusing situation that is ridiculous and childish in its entirety. Being me, I don’t want to have any part in it so I stepped back and offered what advice I could. Then we ditched to Sydney and then off the mainland completely! Which made of a fun night of travel. Katoomba -> Central Sydney -> Circular Quay -> Manly Beach via a ferry -> Circular Quay via a ferry -> A 12KM walk from Circular Quay to the Sydney Domestic Airport. We of course made sure to spend some well earned time in Manly and dip our feet in the Ocean!
Currently we are in Hobart, Tasmania! We are looking for a camper van to traverse the island/country with and have some very promising leads. Other than that… we have to wait a couple weeks until the cherry season starts up and may just kill that time with some apple thinning.
Hobart is beautiful. Everyone is so friendly and helpful. Within an hour of being in town we had 4 people offer assistance with directions when we were showing we were the tiniest bit lost. Everyone is smiling and the sun is warm. Everything seems so cheap compared to the mainland as well! Wow Australia can be expensive!
“C’mon, let me hear ya say, woo-woo, Let me hear ya say, woo-woo”
