First pub!First pub!First pub!

'China' (as delicately named by the boys) was running slow and was made to down his snake-bite black before we searched for the next water hole!
I appologise now (Mum) that most of these photos will be drunk backpacker ones, similar to those of my student days!

Some days, however were not spent intoxicated - probably just hungover! No no, I'm not that bad!

On Boxing Day, we went on a Treasure Hunt pub crawl... I was disappointed to find there was no treasure! But we had a great time finding each pub and the beer that awaited us! Oh, and in some cases tequila... costly but well-spent for the high level fun!

27th Dec: Julia's birthday so we went for breakfast and later to the World Bar for a quick one.

A street performer called Bruce was staying at The Pink House Hostel and we went down to support him at Circular Quay on Wednesday 28th December.

29th December: Big group Bondi - Coogee walk.

30th December: Reunited with my ole travel buddies, Sian and Anna :-)

I later went with Sian and some girls from the hostel for dinner and a movie at Govinda's - a Hare Krishna restaurant with lay-down cinema!
Later on, Anna, Sian and I walked into the city and met with Lilli, Jenny and

Round The Rocks, Beck, Seb & Deb!
Matt - the Broome crew all together once more!!

New Years Eve: Bought some bottle and tested adding vodka to drinks and re-sealing them to enable us to enter an alcohol free zone at Blue's Point later that evening!
In the end, our drinks were never checked - or maybe it was our precise, fool-proof re-gluing of bottle caps?! Anyway, I took Anna, Sian, Jenny and Lilli to where the entire hostel was hanging out from early afternoon in order to keep some space to watch the fireworks over the Harbour Bridge... A lovely, if very long, New Years celebration!
