Well, I have spent 3 days in Newcastle. I had my first rainy day but thats okay, I spent most of it travelling on the train to NC. The hostel here... not so bad. Free food night/ social night while I stayed to I have yet to buy dinner here... which is excellent..... just lots of beer.

So my first day i spent walking around on the beaches, checking out surfers, and old men playing rugby on the beach.... lol

The next day I went on a wine tour of the Hunter Valley.... beauitful country out there, wish I waited another couple weeks then there would have been some greens on the vines.

And now I'm off to Port Stephens.
