Alright - i have been aproximately RUBBISH at updating this travel blog, but i'm sure i'll improve eventually...
We've been in Australia for just over a week now, but it feels like a lot longer! Loving it out here and even got to watch an episode of neighbours last night (i was in heaven!).
Arrived at our hostel (BASE) which was lovely, although i get the feeling the staff really have no idea whats going on, which is nice as they are a little bit like me. Amy can back that up as every 5minutes i claim i have lost something or don't know where i am. We ended up staying in the sanctury (way more expensive than what we actually paid) and were delighted to find a huge pile of free girly magazines! We went to darling harbour which was lovely, really clean, modern, sunny etc etc. Found the 'british lolly shop' which we spent ages browsing and getting free products! I also got highly excited when i saw what i thought was the 'national marmite mueseum' but it was actually 'maritime' which means war...or something.
We had a BIG night out that night (with a girl from morpeth!) some canadians, moustache men & pete. Rather amusing, especially as our dubbo friends just told us there was a HUGE fight in the irish bar i so loved the other day! Obviously had to have a macdonalds on the way home (as they don't have malias in sydney, surprisingly).
The next day we had a lovely lie in and headed to the Harbour bridge/opera house. We lay in the sun for a bit because we didn't feel great, & kept claiming that the quayside is much better (and i will keep claiming that, because its very true!) The opera house is slightly over-rated but still good to see. Had a quiet night in at scary canary with Maimins & Pete, where we talked about things such as my driving & our love of england and how we should never tell any aussie that missy higgins can't sing, or we'll be hung.
Opened a bank account the next day! Felt rather grown up, despite the fact it was really easy. Our cards arrived in Dubbo today, very exciting!!
Anyway, i'm so far behind that i can't be bothered to catch up right now. All you need to know is that we're having a great time!!!
Love sarah xxx
