well we spent a few days in wollongong, wasnt the greatest place in the world pretty rough. on xmas eve we had wine stolen from our fridge, then we got egged on the way to the pub, we didnt get let into one place and then got kicked out of another. kat had to end up taking danni home as she was a little worse for wear but me and gemma stayed out. we had quite a good nite in the end, although there was a massive fight at the end and we had to dodge out of the way! we went out on boxing day though to a really nice pub with an awesome dj and met some locals who were actually really friendly!
xmas day was cool, we spent it sleeping off our hangovers and then at the beach. the beaches there are really nice, soft sand and clear sea so it was just like we imagined it would be. we made a xmas tree out of sand and drunk lots of cider, also burried kat in the sand but sadly she managed to escape!! for xmas dinner we had free hot dogs from this korean christian group who also gave us presents and free drinks, score! we cooked our bbq in the evening at the courtyard in our hostel.
so weve been in sydney a week and a half, its definately my favourite place in oz so far. weve done all the touristy stuff like having a tour of the opera house and going up the city tower. kat and i did a day trip to the blue mountains which was really cool and a cruise of the harbour. weve spent a lot of time round circular quay, i love all the buskers down there - loads of people riding massive bikes and using fire poi and dressing us up in funny outifts.
new years eve was loads of fun, we went to yaranabbe park just up from where were staying and spent all day in the park. we got there early so managed to get a good spot, we could see the harbour bridge really well and also the fireworks from darling harbour. tom, baker and a couple of others came down in the evening and we all got really drunk (strange that!) and watched 2 lots of fireworks. we did it all properly with champagne and sparklers, then ran around chatting to all the other people who were there. they had a street party right next to us so we kept going over to dance then back to the blankets to mix up more drink. later on we wandered the streets for ages and ended up going back to this girls house in north sydney, then started drinking again and spent the day recovering on the beach! it was definately one of my favourite new years.
now weve got a couple of days to finish seeing sydney - theres so much to do and not enough time. i think the plan is to get some camper vans next and travel up to brisbane for austrailia day to meet up with the boys again.
ill put some photos up as soon as i can. happy new year!! x
