Sunday morning we walked to the Catholic church which is next to our apartment complex and attended Mass. After church we headed to the mall to get all of the other stuff we needed in our apartment to get by until the rest of our stuff arrives by ship in a month or two. The most important and hardest thing for us to select that day was blankets for the bed. Here in Australia they use quilts (a light comforter) and put a cover over it, but all the covers we saw had unattractive, busy patterns on them. We just wanted a simple solid color but the only ones we found were above our budget. After visiting multiple stores and re-visiting all of them we finally decided on a striped pattern that was the simplest we could find and the colors match (at least I think) our room. After an exhausting day of shopping we were able to relax at home and watch a movie on our free TV (courtesy of our home stay family).
