After the music had finished we said bye to the girls and then went to have a look at Emma and Matt’s apartment. We walked to theirs via Kings Cross an area which we had not visited before. Well what can I say except I couldn’t tell the difference between the hookers and the girls’ who were out for a “good time”. Women walking around in not a lot and the men just drunk out of their minds, it was a bit scary and im glad their apartment wasn’t too far away. They were actually staying in a hotel which also rented out some of their rooms long term. The room itself which consisted of a double bed, desk, a small kitchenette on the side and an ensuite was very cosy but did have a fabulous view of the city. After a bit of a chat we made our way home.
The following day we were meeting up at the girls’ to go canoeing. We caught 2 taxis and headed into Rose Bay where Roisin had organised an an hour and half’s canoeing for $20=£10. I paired up with Emma, there was Lisa and Jen, Sally and Roisin, the boys had individual canoes and Dawn stayed behind and took lots of pictures and recordings for us.
We all had great fun splashing around and got a fantastic view of the Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge. We made our way to a nearby small beach where we sunbathed for half an hour to dry off (some of the girls’ didn’t think they were going to get wet and so had not put their bikinis on underneath) and then splashed around a little more before heading back. All that canoeing had made us all feel very hungry so after a quick shower back at the girls’ place we then walked to a local restaurant at Bondi beach where we enjoyed a lovely dinner and then devoured the giant portions of chocolate cake and cheesecake we had ordered for dessert.

I stayed in Kings Cross! Hostel was okay, though full of what felt like kids....
I did move down to the YHA for my last night though, as they had a pool on the roof.
