Hey, so hows it going, I have just realised that actually this blog is how most people know where I am! Have been rubbish at actually contacting people so I apologise! Right now im in Sydney wooohoo- its ok :). Big city much the same as another big city. Arrived on thursday morning and pretty much fell out of the bus and into my room since i decided to be incredibly lazy and book the hostel right next to the station. Slept quite well on the bus. Headed straight out to do a bit of exploring, walked up through the gardens near the opera house and right round the corner to get some good pics and do the tourist thing. Decided to jump on the ferry and go across to Manly Beach, which was kinda like Brighton/sea side town, nice shops, seagulls. This is where I found the most amount of xmas decorations and Kellys Bar! (will post pics!) Santa on a surfboard, tinsel on a palm tree whatever next. Decided to treat myself to fish and chips on the beach only to get mobbed by half a ton of seagulls! Was pretty lucky on the way back the sun was setting behind the bridge (you know that big famous one in sydney) and the opera house which was quite kool. Obviously my pictures are rubbish but it did look pretty kool. After that headed back through town and back to the hostel for some kip- next day Blue moutains!
