hey, Today was my last in Sydney so I tried to cram in lots of stuff to do. Fenn left in the early hours of the morning after we watched the first match of the world cup together and is in New Zealand tonight, lucky boy! I slept in pretty late, then took a bus down to Circular Quay in an attempt to tour the opera House. Unfortunately I was disappointed because 3 of the theatres were closed for renovations or something and the guy at the desk told me the tour wo...

hello, I feel like I've lived in Sydney for a while, getting to know my way around like a pro. havn't really been out much in the evenings coz my days have been packed with walking around and I've been knackered since I arrived but did go to the cinema for a treat yesterday.

We visited darling harbour and then took a (very expensive...

I had to check out today so I wandered to the harbour and into town. There is a large volume of pensioners knocking around and I've seen several bowls clubs so I guess its a retirement place but the water reminds me a lot of Poole Quay and its such a lovely sunny day I can't be nega...

Today, me , Fenn and Penille took a bus to Nimbin. This is just a tiny village but has become really popular with tourists ever since backpackers started turning up in the 1970's and a student festival (aquarius) was held here promoting alternative lifestyles and eco-living. The village has now become hippy central and we had to go and check it out coz its pretty famous now. As soon as we got off the bus all you can smell is a strong wiff of weed, its absolutely...
