The little trip across a big ocean
Today is mostly a travel day. Wait for the 2-hour train to Sydney, and wait for the 4-hour train to Canberra. I spent the morning studying, so there just isn't anything noteworthy about the day, but the hostel I have stayed at for the last 3 nights is amazing. It was a caberet club at some time in the past, so there is a small stage in the general room. They have TVs in the old storage rooms and I reckon what used to be a bar. There is some really ornate architecture and some of the lights are very classic designs. Some of the windows still have stain glass in various patterns. The upstairs apparently served as a hotel/brothel, but I tried not to think about the brothel part when I was tucked in bed each night. The grounds in the back aren't large, but they are well sculpted and there is a statue of a lady with a half a towel on that looks as if she has just been caught skinny dipping in the fountain that surrounds her.
