A Day at Darling Harbour - Night 44

The weather proved to be dour again today, as the clouds hung low over the top of the concrete jungle’s canopy. Outdoors the elements were more like a November day in Seattle than Sydney. For lunch we had American cuisine, large juicy burgers from Burgerlicious, a Red Robin-esque chain...

Manly Museum - Night 43

The weather was as poor as predicted and it rained intermittently throughout the day, so inside activities it was. After lunch at Wrapido, we met the girls at the Marriot and walked a few blocks to the Museum on College Street. Basically a natural history museum, it also had a current exhibit...

Bondi Beach - Night 42

Paolo and I met the girls at the Town Hall station to catch our train out to the world famous Bondi Beach. About an hour away, Bondi is located on the far eastern reaches of Sydney in a small cove along the Pacific Ocean. The sky was cloudy all morning, but the sun broke through just as we...

Sydney Walkabout - Night 41

I awoke from my air mattress in the dining room rather late and it was nearly 10:30 by the time Paolo and I had made our way into the city to meet the girls. The others were dead set on seeing the zoo; I was not, so we went our separate ways for the day. For me traveling in groups is difficult...

Arrival in Sydney - Night 40

We were all packed up, checked out and in the cab on the way to the airport by 10 am. Our five days in Noosa were enjoyable and relaxing (and fairly cheap), though I wouldn’t want to spend any more than that there. It is slow-paced, family oriented place that doesn’t offer much in the way of...

Sydney Airport

A fun city, a boring city, and some whales

We arrived in Sydney mid-afternoon and were picked up by a shuttle bus our hostel had arranged for us. In the middle of rush-hour traffic, our driver insisted on breaking only when within about 1 foot of other cars, cyclists, or pedestrians. After about 40 minutes in the death cab, we arrived at...

East coast Aussie, a journey of awesome places, and some BIG parties...

Okayyy, big apologies I've been ridiculously lazy haven't I...don't know where the time went! I'm well into my South America trip now so I've decided not to write a big blog on my East Coast Oz experience. Not to say I didn't enjoy it - the whole thing was amazing. I guess in summary it was...

The Brit's Mistake

This post has nothing to do with PM Blair . . . I can't believe the Brit's sent their convicts to Australia hundreds of years ago and stayed on their miserably rainy, cold and small island. I'm pretty sure they made the biggest mistake of their empire's existance by not keeping their convicts...
