Round The World Trip 2006
Just before we approached the Sydney, we spent the night in the Capital of Australia. ( now how many of you knew Sydney wasn't the capital) For those of you who did, well done and yes you are correct it is Canberra. We arrive in Wednesday evening, and it goes pretty dark here are 6 PM so it was a littel confusing to navigate.
But with a couple of detours we ended up at the YHA hostel and checked in for $77 bucks for a twin. The most we spent so far for accomodation, but it was quite spacious.
The city itself was really quiet, granted it was mid week but it is the CAPITAL! So it was a little shocking that restaurants were empty and clubs were few and far. But did find this little Irisheee smoky bar with live music so it wasnt too bad.
The capital was a little dispointing and i hoped there would have been more to do and see on our stop over. The following morning we rushed down stairs to put some money in the meter as we were adiment we would not get another parking ticket fine of $50 dollars.
As we stepped out of the hostel we were preety much in the main high stret where we found the Irish bar withlive music the previous night. I was hoping to find a camera shop and talked myself into spending $628 dollars on a Sony digital camera with 2 GB flash stick. So now i look like proper tourist geek but i dont care as i have some absolutle priceless shots.
Until next time... time next until
