Saturday We had a lazy day as everyone had felt a bit rough from the night before. Nick and I went for a late breakfast along the riverfront which was really nice, and Lauren and Lisa joined us as we shouted them across when they were walking back from their breakfast. We decided to chill by the pool for a bit and watched others engage in circus activities - there was some event going on that evening that people had travelled to come to this hostel to participat...

We got checked into our new hostel and then got a taxi to the closest cinema (which was paragon), it d...

Saturday We spent most of the morning chilling watching TV (I'm a celeb, the apprentice, first dates, goggle box) whilst we had the opportunity to, it was cloudy so our plans to chill by the pool were overtaken. In the afternoon, Carly's friend Bee came over who we later realised Lauren had lived opposite in halls (they didn't mingle at uni so this took a while to realise) and the girls took us to Chinatown which was totally manic but I enjoyed it. They were se...
