Saturday 8th December 2007

We planned on moving back to the city today so, when we were up and packed, we made our way back to the ferry terminal and then back across the harbour to Circular Key. Back in Sydney we'd already booked ourselves back into the BIG! Hostel, so made our way over to there. It was really hot with our backpacks on - and the hostel was on the other side of town, but we made it ok.

When we'd paid our money to the hostel we went up to our room to dump our bags and to make our beds. As soon as we started to make the beds there was a really strong smell of wee and we found some stained sheets on the floor - so Nikki went to complain to reception. They eventually let us move rooms (although they didn't want us to at first... but we insisted!) and it turns out that someone DID wet the bed - but not their own! That's right, someone went to the toilet on SOMEONE ELSES BED... uuuurrrrgggghhh!

After the whole checking-in / bed wetting episode me and Nikki went out to the famous Paddy's Markets. Everyone we've spoke to on our travels has mentioned them, and said we should check them out - so we did. They were quite impressive. Really big, and if you were on the lookout for something, then there's a pretty good chance you'd find it there. When we'd bought what we were looking for, we went back out into the sunshine.

We spent some time looking round the shops, Nikki even started to spend the money she was given for Christmas from my Gran - she bought herself a nice pair of brown leggings. Tonight, we came back to the hostel and had some noodles with vegetables for our tea, before doing a Skype call with Mum and Keith and then relaxing in front of the TV.

Uuuuurrrrgggghhh... someone's been weeing in my bed!
