Bangkok AirportBangkok AirportBangkok Airport

Making use of the sleeping facilities...
Before arriving in Australia we had a few long flights ahead of us Phuket-Bangkok Bangkok-Singapore Singapore-Perth. Therefore airport sleeping was on the agenda and damn we were knackered, when we finally arrived in Perth it was 3.00am in the morning so we had to wait at the airport until a decent hour where we could check into a Hostel.

We headed for Northbridge in Central Perth for our first few nights and then onto Fremantle (Freo next to the harbour, which is the main hangout for all backpackers and home to the famous Old Fire Station Backpackers, known to be one of the best hostel in the whole of Oz.

This place is so laid back, free internet, playstation, tv in your room with a choice of movies to choose from and most importantly you can bring your own drinks. I would have to say it is like being on Big Brother but without the cameras. Special events range from standard Karoke fancy dress to imaginary weddings...Yep they even had one fo the owners as the vicar, who had gained his qualifications from the internet (doing a Robbie Williams).

Anyhow enough of the intro, i'll let you look
