Bussing All Day Long

I have now become a pro-packer now!  At 5 I was the first to get up, Haressa wasn’t willing to wake so early, I don’t blame her. 

Not that this was very important but the cab driver that took us to the bus station was extremely rude.  He didn’t get out of the car to help us with our bags and when he finally did, he gave us attitude.

Haressa and I had to part and go our separate ways as sad as it was.  At my stop I waited for 45 minutes and almost fell asleep at the bus stop.  Much to my relief I got a seat all to myself and practically slept the whole ride to Sydney.  The scenery was pretty there but it was all yellow grass, trees, hills and cattle or sheep, not interesting at all.  The ride started at 7 in the morning and I arrived in Sydney at my hostel at 9:15 at night.  Such a long ride allowed me to learn almost every single song on my playlist.

The hostel that I am staying at is very big so I am not sure how easy it will be to make friends but I don’t think it will be a problem.  This is the first time I have done this on my whole trip… I am staying in a mixed dorm of 8!  There are two lovely British brothers that are here on work, Tim and Alex.  They tell me there use to be two Canadian girls staying in this room but they left a few days ago, darn!  The boy below my bunk is from Australia and his name is Zac, he is house hunting while he is here.  A girl arrived this morning while I was asleep and left before I got the chance to say hi but I am sure I’ll get the chance soon.  There is one more girl in my room but she leaves today and doesn’t seem that friendly so it is probably for the best.


There is a three-hour walking tour in the morning, I think I might just do that on my first day here.
