Another wet day (saturday) in oz!! Met up with old mate, henson which was great. He took us to have a look at the mardi gras parade, was a real eye opener with some crazy characters! Then we did a pub crawl of his favorite haunts! real good night. Today went up the sky tower and had a 360 degree view of sydney. weather was real hot and sunny for a change!!went to the opera house and sydney harbour bridge, we love sydney! Mr henson is very kindly putting us up in his apartment which we are very grateful for, as our last hostel in kings cross was filthy and we had to share a room with 2 working irish men! awkward!
