Once again, the alarm goes off and we're up and out of bed in time to get dressed, have some breakfast and check out of our room by 10am. I tell you, this traveling lark can be tough! We're far too stingy to pay to store our bags in the security lockers, so we just take the important things like the passports etc and dump them in reception. We then headed out into the sunshine.
Me and Nikki started by looking in a couple of the shops - seeing if there was anything we'd like to buy, but couldn't possibly afford? When we got bored of the window shopping, Nikki decided she wanted to go into Myer (a large department store) and check out their 'Christmas section'. We then spent about 20 minutes looking at decorations and toys... so it wasn't that bad!
Because it was such a beautiful day today (Nikki definitely regretted wearing jeans), we went for a picnic down by the Yarra River, which was really nice. Afterwards we had another look round town and ended up at the library, where we used the free internet, and tried to catch up on any news at home.
This evening, when we made it back to the hostel, we had some noodles for our tea and then just hung around on the comfy seats in reception - using the free internet we'd been given there. I just read my emails (or lack of), and Nikki checked her Facebook. When it was time, we walked round to the bus station and jumped onto the Greyhound bus for Canberra.
OK Sydney, you've got a lot of work to do - if you wanna impress us more than Melbourne!
