So I decided back to Castle Hill and let Terry and Gee know that I would be going to Cairns on Monday, So I got my stuff together and headed back down to Sydney to spend a few days with the girls and have a better time than I did before I guess.
Got back to the hostel wich was the MAZE in Pitt street nice atmosphere here and pretty chilled out nice place to stay, Rhian tells me that we are going to Minus 5 tonight, This is a bar where everything is made of ice cool I hear you say and not just its ice. So after the girls got there glad rags on we headed out to a bar first which was nearby called SideBar this was cool as we had vouchers BOGO free which is needed here as the prices are expensive.
After pounding those drinks away we headed off for our booking to get into the Minus 5 bar you have to book to come here as they only let people in for 30 mins so I guess you do not get frostbite and try and sue or whatever.
So anyway we headed
down and it was $32 to get in including two cocktails so for the novelty factor it was worth it but 30 mins was quite a short time in there. You are given a jacket, gloves and boots to wear to stop yourself getting cold which to be honest your really do need unless you walk around Sydney looking like a lost Himalayan climber.
Inside it was pretty swish and slidy, its is a massive freezer in all reality but you soon lose that feeling when you step in there and get given your cocktails in glasses made from ice.
I had a great time in the place getting to play with Hannah’s very expensive camera which made me feel like I was taking amazing photos but I will let you lot decide that. The sculptures and all the ice statues were brilliantly carved and it was a real change going somewhere so different. If in Sydney I would highly recommend that you go.
Next day was spent doing very little and just chilling out, The following day I went to the National Maritime Museum which was free!! and very interesting and had some nice exhibits to
pass away a couple of hours but.
All in all I gave Sydney a second chance with some different people and I loved it it was a nice city with lots of escapes like the Botanical Gardens and the different harbours.
Well today it is off to Cairns (1st May) and back in the water!!!!
