World Tour 06
First of all apologies for not updating for a few days!
Where to start.. Arrived in Sydney on 20th Monday, Stuck in customs in the airport for a good hour (nothing to with us) Adam managed to get through but forgot to declare his tea bags!
Eventually met Unlce Robert (Sams Uncle) who took us into to town to find our Hostel. We were staying in Kings Cross, the Soho of Sydney. Got to the hostel only to find out our booking, made in November last year, had not been recorded, so we were split up and placed in 6 bed dorms with some strange swedes! (however they sorted us out the next night)
We left the hostel in search of beer and were met by lots of offers of Gentlemens entertainment! we managed to resist temptation and found a sports bar where Uncle Robert gave us the run down on Dangerous spiders, sharks and jellyfish aswell as what to see and do.
21st Tuesday we went for a stroll through the botanical gardens and were confronted by hundreds of flying fox bats, we then met Robert and Lynette in Sydney Opera Bar for a beve, the view here is amazing, it didnt take us long to discover the abundance of talent Australia has to offer, lads Oz is definetly worth a visit.
That evening we stuck some fat steaks on the barbie and sampled the local wine, best meal so far.
22nd Wednesday we went to darling harbour where they have a free to public maritime museum, racked up some cultural brownie points, had dinner in a gorgeous italian restaurant, were eating well here in Sydney, feeling a lot healthier.
23rd Thursday woke up at 6.45am to watch the chelsea Barcelona game, then wished we hadnt bothered! made the most of the facilities in the apartment and after a few lengths of the pool and a session in the sauna we headed out to circular Quay, some serious walking was done, walked Harbour bridge and visited The Rocks, one of the oldest areas of Sydney with countless pubs and bars.
Lads night in with another barbie of sausages and mash and a crate of James Boag, Australias finest beer.
Off to Bondi beach today will keep you posted.
James, Adam, Sam & Ali (Kanye)
