Hello all. Sorry It has been sometime since my last entry. I have been berated and I do apologise! I'm still in Sydney at Janets beautiful flat. She has completely given me a false sense of Sydneys accommodation, I have far too high expectations now. I have been up to the usual tourist stuff. Saw the bridge and the opera house. It is very strange seeing such a famous landmark in the flesh. Although I must say I do think the bridge is a complete monstrosity ( I cant spell that, I know mum). Its not very attractive basically!
I have been spending alot of my time at various beaches. Yesterday me and Janet hired a car and went up to the northern beaches. We went to Palm Beach ( where the film Summer Bay apparnently). They are all so stunning. I'll put up some phots. I have been enjoying the nightlife (of course). I have made a few friends here already (and plan on stealing some of Janets too). Everyone is so nice here. People generally are much more friendly, happy and good looking. The bus drivers must all be high on prozac or something, I have never met such
The hot waiter
Had to get him in the shot! cheerful bus drivers.
The weather has been beautiful. I'm working on my tan nicely (factor 30 all the way though). I'm not a natural surfer though. I have had one lesson but wasn't that great at all. I'm gonna persevere though. And of course it's always a good opportuity to check out all the bronzed god-like surfers. Every one is so healthy here, thousands of joggers. And the hard-core nutters who run along the sand up and down Bondi (posing too). I have been for 1 run since I got here, but there are so many hills I completely died. Janet puts me to shame!
I'm getting good at finding my way around on public transport. It is actually quite nice not having a car, although I'm sure I wont be saying that for ever! I'm going to start my travels up the coast early tomorrow morning. Think I'm going to go to Newcastle for a couple of nights then make my way up to Byron Bay to meet Jill, I cant wait for that. I think me and Jill should do some more surf lessons up there.
So all in all having a fab time. I'll check
in soon. xxxx
