Day 42 I had a bit of a lie-in to catch up on some sleep before heading to the gym which is on the 5th floor and although it is small it has a good range of equipment that I can use whenever I like for free!!! So all in all this place is amazing as there are two swimming pools, two gyms, two hot tubs, a sauna room and a squash court. The bonus of all this is that it is all included in my price for the room so I am a very happy bunny at this present moment in time...

On day 41 as previously mentioned in yesterday's blog, I arrived in Sydney at 7am this morning and walked down Pitt Street to meet Nelly who was going to be my new landlady as I managed to find a flat on Gumtree that had a sunny room available, and although it is only 3x3 metres so pretty small, it has a bed, a good view and a chester draws and that is all I need.

After a day exploring the city I headed back to the house and started to pack things up as I wi...

On Day 38, I first headed to the Post Office to send a package back to the UK, so mum keep an eye on the post, enclosed will be some leaflets and some postcards, now I apologise to anyone that will get a postcard with a British stamp on it, it's just that the Australian government decide to charge tourists a bit of money for sending a single post card back to the UK, and as much as I love everyone $2.60 for each stamp is a bit too much for me! After the PO I fina...

Day 37 I headed into the CBD and caught the number 119 Tram to the Queen Victoria Markets which were slightly similar to those in Adelaide, but out the back of the food market was an arts and crafts market, with many different categories of items that you could purchase, obviously you had a lot of souvenir stalls who are run by people who will see a tourist from a mile off and will try and charge you a bit too much, so make sure you are good at haggling because I...
