We've now got over our jet lag but we aren't loving sydney!!! Been out two days exploring and its just like being home, a cross between Birmingham and London with a bit of water thrown in! :) Our hostel is great, really nice people and sleeping in bunk beds is actually quite fun but its located in the Sydney ghetto, Kings Cross. Loads of prostitutes day and night, strip clubs, drunks and kebab shops hehe We have been to the Opera House, Harbour Bridge, Darling Harbour and Sydney Aquarium. We loved the aquarium, had a great time there but the rest was disappointing. We think its because people say about how brilliant it is here then you get here and well basically its not! (Sorry Nic!!!) We reckon it will get better as we get further up the coast its just a culture shock coming from Asia to Australia. Would you believe that we have seen more begging and homeless people within the space of 2 days than all of our time in Asia put together?!?! We are meeting Rose and Allan (My Grandads sister and her husband) for lunch tomorrow which should be great as they are from New Zealand and i have never met them before! Then on Sunday we are catching a bus to Port Macquarie where hopefully we will start to enjoy Australia. Seeing as its 7 hours away the weather might be a bit better 2!!! Its quite cold here, having to wear trousers, trainers and light jumpers. Sorry this entry has sounded quite depressing, im sure the next one will be more upbeat!! :)
