So we're in oz! W ehave been here for 2 weeks now and have worked our way up from Melbourne... staying there for 5 days and stopping in Canberra for a night. We have been in Sydney for a week now and are travelling up to Byron Bay on a gruelling 13hr coach ride tonight!

I love Australia! Melbourne was a great way to start our time on oz.. we had the best of both worlds staying in the luxury of a house with hannahs family friends in the peaceful suburbia of Williamstown, but were only a quick trainride from the city. We visited the institute of sport and drove around the F1 circuit... walked around the new and older parts of the city and experienced the nightlife in the evening. we were there on a public holiday so it was pretty lively!

Canberra was a short stop off to break up the drive to Sydney and it gave Hannah a chance to catch up with some more family friends. Canberra itself was very quiet with not a huge amount to do, but we went to AIS and just enjoyed staying with such lovely people who spoilt us rotten!

Sydney has bee amazing, there has been so much to do. We have seen the opera house and circular qua, done the harbour bridge climb and the botanical gardens. We stayed on George street but met up with friends who were staying in King's cross. Our hostel was really decent and not too expenseve so that always helps! We have been to Bondi beach for a couple of days and visited Manly also... both stunning beaches with squeaky sand!!

Looking forwards to Byron next!
