It's my last few days in Sydney and I am looking forward to moving on!  I've been here for almost three weeks and it's time for a change - it's the longest place I've spent anywhere so far.This week has been really chilled out, the weather is so nice, 25 degrees most days.  On Monday I spent all afternoon in the park sunbathing, reading and listening to music.  Tuesday I took the bus down the Bondi Beach, which was really busy.&...

My Intrepid Tour officially finished today so yet again I am going it alone! Not scary now though as I moved into Pete's apartment for 2 weeks. Just been food shopping and it's a lot cheaper here! It was good to meet up with Pete on Sunday, we went to an AFL game, Swans V Carlton and the Swans smashed them! I didn't watch hardly any of the game as we were chatting and drinking, plus the atmosphere was terrible! After the game you're allowed onto the pitch and...

I've finally made it to Sydney and my Intrepid Tour officially finishes on Tuesday. The last week has been more laid back - I spent two days on a sheep farm and the weather was nasty! Raining and cold, just like Winter in England. The family that looked after us were nice, fed us so well, even had a roast dinner! We helped out on the farm, including riding motorbikes to get the sheep together and then we all had a go at drenching them (a bit like worming a do...
