Well it wouldn't be a 'Chloe holiday' if i didn't end up ill or in hospital at some point and so 4 months into my trip, the time had come..........! The day started leisurely with everyone chilling and relaxing in the sun out on my friends boat when someone's great idea of lets get the doughnut (rubber ring that is towed from the back of the boat-main aim to be spun around and flung off!) out came about. Not being one to miss out on the fun (especially when all the blokes thought they were the only ones tough enough to go on, particularly as there are sharks in the water-i didn't see any though!) so i jumped aboard the doughnut with a friend, my stupid last words being 'don't go too fast' of course this was like asking a kid not to do something and after lots of screaming and laughing at a gillion miles an hour i hit a wave v.badly and i think somehow managed to elbow myself in the rib and suddenly was unable to make a noise through the pain, i continued like the brave soldier i am and shortly after came flying off (landing on my side to help the injury along of course!!). I tried for the rest of the day drinking to numb the pain but by saturday morning was still in agony so had to pop along to the hospital and had some xrays! Unfortunately as the injury is so high up (it's in the boob area)it is mainly cartilidge there so it wont show on the xray if it is cracked or not, so the doc has put me on rediculously strong painkillers,that are highly addictive...and your unable to drink on!! 4 days later and i am still no better even on the pills..will be an interesting few weeks as we are moving on now from Sydney, am travelling to Adelaide on Saturday and then to Melbourne, Uluru, Perth, Darwin, Cairns and the east coast! Will be sad to leave Sydney as we have had some great times here but looking forward to travelling again and seeing some more of this beautiful country!
