Day 1
Woke up in Brisbane feeling very rough after our night out with the Newcastle girls. We got our Oz Experience bus at 1.30 to Surfers Paradise - however, on route the driver decided to stop at Zorbing! Despite us feeling very rough and hungover from the night before we decided that we couldnt miss this opportunity so crawled off the bus into our bikinis and before we knew it we were at the top of a hill being sprayed with water (which we made the guy turn the hot tap on!) before diving into our Zorb ball. Decided to see if we were able to stand up but within two seconds of being pushed down the hill we were on our backs swishing around in the water! very funny and actually helped our hangovers for a few minutes!. Once we got to surfers paradise (which we had been warned was a little like Blackpool) we got a minibus to our hostel - Trekkers just 10 minutes from the centre. As this was a small family run hostel we got chatting to the owner and next thing we knew we were eating home made chocolate cookies and being offered jobs here selling tours etc.. Shame we are not staying!
Day 2
Think Charlotte has a two day hangover because she was still feeling very rough today. As it was cloudy we decided to go and explore the shops around surfers paradise. Had a little chill on the beach in the afternoon. After we had made a gorgeous spag bol for our tea we signed up for the 'club crawl' which is organised by all the hostels for travellers and basically is a deal in which you pay a bit of money for entry to four clubs and a free drink in each club and free pizza. Got picked up by the club crawl bus at 8.30 and after picking others up from different hostels around the town we went to the clubs. After a few drinks we were on the dance floor parting the night away, besides the 4 free drinks we got on the club crawl we also managed to get another 4 from random rich people! Buzzing! Feeling pretty drunk we were in a que to go into the last of our 4 nightclubs called 'the bedroom' when the free pizza arrived on a tray. As we were are all hungry travellers the pizza started emptying from the tray rapidly so we took it in turns to run and grab as many slices as we could! haha. Felt a little sick afterwards but managed to carry on drinking and dancing the night away. Whilst at the bar Nicky spotted a fight brewing so casually moved us out the way - good job because the guy who we had been stood next to got a right old punch in the face! Anway, after avoiding this fight we were nearly involved in another after a drunk girl had pushed past Nicky and attempted to push past Charlotte who had drunkenly decided to stand her ground! Luckily two against one saw the girl gives us the evils and then carry on barging through the club! Thank god! Anway, it was still raining whilst we made our way to the bus stop - siniging at the top of our voices. Managed somehow to get the right bus back to our hostel to collapse on our beds. Excellent night!
Day 3
Woke up hungover (again)! Spent today at a shopping outlet spending money! We both bought some nice ripcurl bikinis and Charlotte bought 4 t-shirt dresses for our nights out. Our bags are extremly full now - so we are not too sure where all this shopping is going to go! After our tea we hired a dvd, bought chocolate and sweets and had a girlie evening infront of the tv.
Next update about more partying is coming soon. x
Day 4
Sun's out! well in and out (we can cope with that just no rain) we hired bikes from our hostel,to get out and about around surfers. Little did we no how dangerous the bikes could be! we cycled round for a couple of hours, stopping at main beach, for a swim - charlotte forgot her bikini bottoms, but nicky convinced her to go in, in her thong! very funny when a jelly fish stung her bum. Nicky found this hilarious. Bikes had a mind of there own as nicky found out when the tyres decided to lock, sending her over the handle bars. (Although she recoverd well). On route back the chain fell off littlens bike, some random guy working past for some reason had a spanner so sorted us out. We thankfully made it back and gave the bikes back to the hostel. Newcastle girls arrived at our hostel today, so would be rude not to go out for reunion drinks. After pre bar drinking games, we caught a lift in to town, somehow we gained free drinks in bar called "monkey cage" evenually got the bus home, somehow! A guy on the bus was playing a guitar and singing on the bus, so we joined in and turned the bus alise into a dance floor - till the spoil sport got off at his stop (how very dare he!)
Day 5
As we were feeling a little delicate today, we chilled on the beach (Sun is back in town!) chilled out after tea, then big sleep required.
Day 6
we got the shuttle bus to main beach, waves were mega big - we played in the sea - sole aim - don't drown! we made our way back to the hostel- we showered and changed then we caught the shuttle bus to our Oz experience bus to byron bay. Were now in New south wales, clocks go forward an hour, which means were 11hours ahead of home.we arrived in bryon bay checked into our hostel, we ended up playing drinking games in newcastle girls room - (ruth was leaving so 2 newc girls left) this was supposed to be ruths last night out, she was so drunk she didn't make it out! oops off to bed we went.
