So I’m newly single and living in an apartment on Cairns Marina. Used to live in the burbs and never had any idea about how many fat bum bag wearing tourists waddle around the place. Equally parts fascinating and disgusting.
Hope this new chapter has started out ok for you mate…obviously minus the fat bum bag wearing tourists.

a lot of nice eating places there, you might end up with your own fat bum

between there and the Casino you're in tourist central, before you know it you'll be taking day trips to Green Island

Food is great up here, but overpriced. Charging capital city prices without capital city quality and service. Criminal in my view.

That said, our locals where we used to live were Barron River Hotel and the Red Beret. Both charged $10 for a schooner.

A shy bloke goes into a bar and sees a beautiful woman sitting at the bar. After an hour of gathering up his courage, he finally goes over to her and asks tentatively.
"Would you mind if I chatted with you for a while?" To which she responds by yelling, at the top of her lungs, "No, I won't sleep with you tonight!"
Everyone in the bar is now staring at them. Naturally, the bloke is hopelessly and completely embarrassed and he slinks back to his table.
After a few minutes, the woman walks over to him and apologizes.
She smiles at him and says, "I'm sorry if I embarrassed you. You see, I'm a journalist and I've got an assignment to study how people respond to embarrassing situations."
To which he responds, at the top of his lungs, "What do you mean $200?"

This guy a former NFL Defensive Tackle and has earnt probs around 200 million in his career.

So money isn't an issue but its more interesting when the yanks actually get out and explore the world some of them realise how backward there country really is.

There is a real push back on legislation seeking a "living wage" over there. Min wage is set by each state and some just dont GAF.

Its quite pathetic really we all laugh at there gun laws.

But this is just a bigger issue over there. Minimum wage is a disgrace in some states.

The other thing is when i have met a few Americans on some of travel tours i have been on in Europe. They are shocked we get 4 weeks per year Holiday leave.

When i was in America 2 years ago our trip manager from California said the average American only generally get 1 week paid holiday per year and here we were on a 3 week cross-country trip around the USA.
