Boost up after big night on the duty free Jim Beam and Smirnoff and coke's - energy boosts and de-toxicants in smoothies - great hang-over cure! Day on the beach - scenic and hot! Go for a run along the coastal path towards Bondi - only reached just past Gordon's Bay - thunder and lighting while running - people with their cameras and tri-pods taking photos of the lighting! Cheese and wine in hostel till 8, before best value meal of trip - $5 steak and mash...

Leave Simon's house and catch bus to city centre to get another bus to Coogee - beach resort 30 mins outside Sydney. Stay at 'the only hostel on the beach' Surfside Paradise - great little place, awesome balcony views of sea, beach, town and sports ground. Check out Coogee - small but really nice. Night out at Coogee Bay Hotel - 4 bars - beer garden.
