Peter and Caroline's Most Excellent Adventure!!!
Well you knew it was coming so here we are at Sydney Central beating the tourist track that little bit harder!! Loads of shots of the Opera House and harbour Bridge. We didn't climb the bridge though because it was a RIP OFF $160 each and you couldn't take your own camera - RIGHT. Equally the Opera House was very expensive to go inside - they know how to fleece you these Australians!! You can go in but only to the foyer, any further and you have to pay and go on the tour, nah!
Anyway it was a glorious few days and we pounded the whole area. The harbour was cool loads of stuff to see. We got mistaken for Belgians by some poor Australian couple but hey ho?! The busker was cool - really nice guy - Pete ended up in his act which lasted about an hour!! He got loads of grief from one drunken onlooker, but then the heckler got slightly mauled by security, if you call being dragged off slightly mauled! Deserved it though, Pete swears like a trooper but even he doesn't talk like this moron in front of children.
The hostel was pretty cool despite the odd prostitute coming on to us and I mean both of us at the same time - well that's what you get for staying in the red light district!! If your after beer and brothels, King's Cross is the place! From free BBQ's on the roof to free buses and drinks in the clubs the Funk House is a top place. if you are willing to enter in their weekly wet T Shirt competition you even get a free bar tab and the chance of winning a hundred bucks - I mean where's the down side (?!!?)
People were cool there though and there was absolutely loads of work to be had here, people were simply throwing jobs at us (and no it wasn't hooking proper jobs and everything) - bizarre!!
