Day 4
Well, 4 days into the trip, I lost my camera.
We stopped to get pizza, I was showing Justin some cool photos and the next thing I knew it was gone. Worst part is with the stupid Jackaroo, my budget is too tight to replace it.

We did a harbour tour today which was cool. Took a lot of really sweet PICTURES of the Sydney Opera House and harbour bridge....

The Killers are playing tonight but it's $87 and Justin doesn't want to go.

We leave Sydney tomorrow. Hanging out with Luke and Carla tonight and drinking 'Goon' (cheap 4 liter bottles of wine)

I guess you win some, you loose some. Today, I lost.

Day 3
Took a bus to Coogee beach for a free bbq on the beach. Drinking is kosher anywhere in public and on the beach. Met some really cool Scottish people, and one jerk from Toronto. Went to 'Scubar', this huge backpacker bar for free drinks. The place was paaacked so we took off and found some hole in the wall. Watched cricket, met some actual Aussies, and drank our faces off.Justin puked the next morning.Went to the Australian aquarium, pretty cool.We pick up the JACKAROO tomorrow, so the adventure can begin....

Day 2
Against my better judgement, Justin and I are now proud owners of a 1989 Holden 'Jackaroo' suv. Pictures coming soon.
Justin fell in love with it the second he saw it, there was no reasoning with him.We got a huge deal, it's a 4 cylinder, and it will allow us to get to a lot of 4wd only areas.
We pick up the truck monday, so we have 3 more days to blow in Sydney. Bondi (topless) beach on Sunday, aquarium and zoo tomorrow, free 1 hour of booze and then 15 free drinks around town tonight. Today we have to get our bank accounts and my cell phone set up.
It's been raining since we got here. Spent last night chatting with the English couple, really cool people. Learned the term 'propper dodgey'. FYI You are not allowed to bring a mickey of booze on an airplane, but there is NO rule against taking 13 1 oz. bottles

-Day 1

Ok, so internet is crazy expensive, so I wont have time to email everybody I should. Here is the trip in a nutshell:
Flew Detroit-Chicago-San Fansisco-Sydney.We're here now, all settled in at Legend Has it West end hostel.Sydney is wicked, but me and Hunt are both anxious to get out and explore. We did a mono-rail tour of the city and went car shopping today. Found a '95 Holden Commodore that is calling our names. Station wagons own. Rooming with a nice English couple, Luc and Carla. Went to an Irish pub, watched American music videos, drank English beer and ate falafels. Pretty sure I haven't talked to a single 'Australian' yet.

We need to get out of the city.
