sat 28th- got food and sorted my pictures out tonite, and watched the afternoon afl game in the hostel while eatin the standard backpacker meal of noodles! Then i got a txt off the german boys seein if i wandered to watch the collingwood - brisbane game. so in the eve we went to that. not the best cos the magpies got destoyed (148-56...so brisbane won) but the stadium itself was magnificient and i only wish i could have been there for the ashes or here for the afl grand final. hey ho. after the game we went for a few beers and watched the japan-s.korea game on tv.
