night out with hostel gang

Went out with the gang from hostel. The first photo is of Gary the Gay and Dan. THey are such good fun boys and the second photo is myself with Gani the receptionist from Footprints hostel. Had cocktails at the Chamberlain pub (our local) and then went to Side Bar, Scubar and Scruffy Murphy's. Good times!!!

Bbq at Bronte Beach

Kate had a brilliant idea to buy lots of food and head down to Bronte Beach for an inpromptu BBQ. We all caught the bus and put our 20cents in the bbq and we were off. Many burgers and sausages later and we chilled out on the beach. Did a little paddling and talked crap for ages. Took the bus home - all in all - a fab evening!!!

Bronte Beach!!

A whole gang of us from the hostel grabbed our beach stuff and headed down to Bronte Beach - by far one of the wildest and most dangerous beaches. It sits in a position where it will get incoming waves from not 1, not 2, but 3 different directions. One a rough day, like the day we went it makes for some awesome waves. I had on one of my pretty, but totally not suitable bikini's. i soon learnt this when one wave took my bikini top almost clean off and another ripped my bikini bottoms - i pretty much was naked in front of the whole beach!!!

Tamarama Beach

This is Tamarama beach and is beautiful. Me and kate ventured down here even though it was blowing a gale and was about to rain. But being hard core english girls, we braved the cold and dived in the sea and got ritually thrown around by the waves - awesome!!!

Syney Skyview Tower

Just decided randonly one morning to walk up to tallest building in Sydney and catch a lift to the top and take some scenic pictures of the city. It is really high up and the views are 360!! You can see for miles out over the city, harbour and surrounding towns and beaches! All in all - awesome!

Take That!!

Take That randomly came to Sydney and did a rather impromptu concert in the middle of Martin's Square in the heart of the CBD. They were being filmed for some breakfast tv programme and came out a snag a couple of songs - have to say they were pretty good and i have forgotten how cute Howard is!!!

Stevie and Brisbane

Took a flight up to sunny brisbane to see Steve o - he's a good friend from back home who picked me and Kate up from the airport and gave us our first taster of Australia in awesome style on our first night. We stayed at a 5 start marriott hotel and had a fab weekend. We walked around the Botanical Gardens and visited the Brisbane Casino which was groovy - no beginners luck this time i'm afraid!! Had some nice meals and enjoyed the hotel swimming pool etc. Can't wait to get up to Brisbane - will take more photo's next time!!

MARDI GRAS

Well on Saturday night it was the Mardi Gras festival. It is the biggest street party in the world and happens every year. What it means is thousands of the gays decend on Sydney and dress in colourful clothing and have a great time. Lots of people in the crowd dress up - so not to miss out on an opportunity to look like idiots, myself and kate knicked some theatre nurses outfits from the hospital we are working at and along with 4 others decorated them and headed out onto the streets!! We watched the parade which was amazing and then went to the backpackers bar and met up with the gang and at about 1am we went to another bar until 6am!! All in all a quality night - see more of our photo's on www.picasaweb.google.com/cazspaz. xxxxx
