First Few Days

Checked into hostel on Monday, its pretty good. Swimming pool on the roof.

Went for a walk by myself down to Darling Harbour and did some other exploring.

In the evening i went to the BBQ on the roof where i had a Kangaroo Burger. Also met a few people that night. Went to a bar called Scubar for the night where there was crab racing.

On Tuesday i did my first trip to Taronga Zoo which is located on the Harbours Edge. To get there i used the train which has 2 levels and then after that a ferry across the harbour.

The ferry ride took me past the Harbour Bridge and Opera House which was pretty cool.

Went out again yesterday evening.

Today so far i have had my orientation so ive got loads on info now and more of an idea whats going on. Im gonna try and activate my Aussie Sim card tomo and get my tax file number etc sorted. Too tired to be dealing with that now.

The weather here is excellent although we did have some rain early Monday evening but now its really hot.

Anyways thats it for now
