I arrived in Sydney this morning!
It was a long long night.. I had to clear out my apartment and throw away a lot of stuff in order to repack my backpack.
I woke up at 430am to shower and do a few final things but I still barely made my 715am flight.
It was pouring rain when I got to the airport. Not a good first impression.
After checking into my hostel I took a 1 hour nap and then headed out to explore... at first I was on a quest to find coffee but eventually in became aimless walking and exploration.
I wandered through a cute neighbourhood called Glebe for awhile and ended up at a fish market randomly... which is where I finally got my coffee haha
after the fish market I found the harbour and decided to walk along the coast until I found the Sydney Opera house. I walked for hours and hours and never found it (after look at google maps it turns out I was way way on the wrong side of the city)
Just as my feet were threatening to fall off I found darling harbour. Which is uber touristy and very much like clifton hill in that way.
The whole day it rained on and off but as I got to Darling Harbour it started pouring again, and with my feet in so much pain I decided to see an IMAX movie.
They have a huge imax screen here. I saw the Hubble telescope movie in 3D which was really cool. I <3 space. ... pretty much want to be an astronaut now.
When I got out of the theatre it was 5pm and still raining. I was starving so I decided to find food.
I was a little embaressed while checking out the restaurants. since it was only 5pm they were all completely empty and I was eating alone. Thankfully when I chose one it started raining really really hard and people flooded in for drinks and shelter.
I ate and then walked back here to the hostel.. The hostel I'm stay at is huge.. sooo many rooms and the common space isnt that big. I dont know how im going to meet people.
its 7pm now. I think im going to go out and find a pub or bar in this area called paddys markets.. I havent found it yet.. just saw it on google maps and thought it looked alright.
Tomorrow Im going to go to the right side of the city to see the opera house..
Hopefully the rain gives me a break!
<3 xx bye
