Becky's Trip to Oz & NZ
Hi! Just checked my msgs' - Dad, not in an island off the coast! The stupid dot never goes where I click the mouse! How many boxes of muesli are there exactly?! I know Lindi was sending me some, she even said in her email to let me know if I want anymore! lol. My hostel is called Maze incase your wondering, much nicer than the last! (Though thats not exactly hard!).
Ok, so today we got up, managed to have a bit of a lie-in for a change, and then headed to Bondi Beach. We had to get the tube and then a bus. The weather wasn't too great today, windy and cloudy so not the best day for the beach but we weren't planning on staying long, just wanted to say we've been! The beach was pretty good. Very clean and nice white sand. There were loads of surfers there too. We then looked round the shops (loads of surfy ones like RipCurl, Roxy and Billabong) before heading back to the harbour. When we got to the harbour we booked our whale watching and then had a bit of free time so got an ice cream and sat by the harbour for a bit then walked round for the last time :0( At 13.45pm we went for the whale watching. The water was sooooo choppy! I was really regretting going after the first 30 mins or so as was beginning to feel seasick! lol. But then we stopped and it was ok. We managed to see a humpback whale who stayed by our boat for at least an hour, plus loads of dolphins. It was good. The dolphins kept coming up next to the boat and the whale kept showing it tail and fins. We were glad that we saw something! After that we went to the supermarket and then looked round a shopping centre near our hostel. I had to buy another camera card as nearly filled my second already! Hopefully this'll last the next month! We've both taken so many pictures already. Tomorrow morning we might go to Manly or Coogee beach, as they are suppoed to be better than Bondi, then we are getting the train at 16.20pm, its 14 hours long!!!! ARGH!!! Hopefully we'll have better luck than last week! We get into Brtisbane at 6.30am and Ali's friend is picking us up at the train station and we are staying with her that night. Not sorted out next week yet, but hoping to go to Cairns to visit the barrier reef, then back in Brisbane on the friday to spend the weekend with Ali's cousin and Aunt.
Hope everyone is well,
Take care,
Becky xxxxxxxxxx
