my night
Hey all,
Since my last post pretty much all i have done is sleep.
Went for a walk around the city (or as far as i dared go without getting lost.) Sat in a courtyard watching the world go by, eating pizza (the lady gave me three instead of one for $3 in total - they must love aussies or something because i am scoring favours all the time.)
Listened to the bells, playing the national anthem and our old school bell, which made me a little sad.
A few observations:
Their fire hydrants are white and old-fashioned
You can identify tourists by their looking up at the buildings. Locals look down and curse the parking meters.
They are all very good at skate-boarding
Their police sirens sound like cats wailing (no rhythm - geez!!)
Its hard to find fruit and veges - its a lot of junk food
**
Anyway, went to bed last night at 7pm, and woke up at 10pm, completely disorientated and thinking it was morning. - after checking my phone and walking outside i realised the city never sleeps - its lit as bright as daylight. Everyone came in banging around at 11pm, and that continued until around 4am. So i had a bit of sleep, but still feel tired. I am moving hostels to the quieter Fishermans' Wharf one - becasue this one is filled with people who like clubbing - not my scene, so i dno't talk to any of them.
Today i will be off bike riding around the city (with a guide luckily) - no roller skating across the bridge though - i will do that in new york, but i will be riding across it anyway.
Wish me luck today - hope you are all having fun, and ashmo's was ok???
Love you all,
