Today we decided to hit the shops after watching millions of adverts going on about the sales. Walked around all day, got a few bits, including a sketch book for me (not in sale) as I'm gonna start getting into drawing again while I'm here. Got a Oz flag and a silky pair of boxers to dress up in for new year, I've decided I'm gonna make a cardboard 09 to go on my head! Should be fabulous!

So today we checked into the dreaded Funkhouse, which we had walked passed weeks ago and looked like a total s***hole. However, it turns out its real nice, theres a rooftop balcony with a real nice view and we have a tv in our room! So we can watch films on Christmas eve!

Reminds Pete and I of Cornwall or Newquay. Loads of seagulls everywhere and the water was absolutely freezing. Always warm in Cairns so that was very unexpected! We then did the coastal walk all the way to Bondi Beach. Took bloody ages, but was beautiful. All along the coast. Bondi was the ...

Booked tickets for a New Years festival on Bondi Beach called Sure thing, Utah Saints are there! Went for a walk around the shops looking for jumpers as its bloody freezing here and we are freezing our nuts off! None told us it was cold in Australia! Found a Wagamamas! Yes! We had noodles and beer! Yum yum! We then went in search for the happening area of Kings Cross where all the cool bars and clubs are supposed to be. Boo! Kings cross was horrible! We also f...
