thepast week

since i last lefti was in pennant with dave. well alot has happened.
i took the train to the city (Sydney) and checked into a hostel, the YHA railway square right near central station. im not going to tell you how amazing the city is, ill show my pictures soon but when i was exploring i felt like i wanted to take a picture of everything because everywhere you look you are in awe. i think that my breath was taken away by the sites almost every minute. its definetely some place you have to get used to beause its so overwhelming.

after about 4 hours of walking around i made some friends. i walked up to the cutest guy i saw at the time and asked for the time. turns out he is a fellow travelor from the UK and he met another guy from the UK and we all became friends, tom and joe. the next day we went out all day having beers and site seeing, having laughs, they are fun.

then i went back to the hostel and played cards with the people there. i feel like i have made some amazing life long friendships. we all went out together the next day to olympic park, which is where the olympic games were held in 2000. it is so spacious and large and green.

then we went out that night, what a night. ill never forget this, the people the places the city the lights the buildings the vibe the other travelors! wow is the only word i can say.

i spent 4 days at the hostel in sydney now im at daves friends house in bondi beach. the beach here is amazing, the water so warm, and people arent afraid to take their tops off. and by people i mean women.

so tonight is new years eve, crazy that 2009 has gone. this is how im spending the new year, in a new continent with new everything.

the last thingill say right now is that i have checked a good number of things off my australia to do list.
