12th April
I arrived in Sydney around 10am and checked in at Wake up! Amazing hostel! I waited for Amy to arrive with her friend from Newcastle Emma and then we went to explore Sydney! We had an amazing day and saw lots like the harbour bridge and the opera house. We decided to go to the aquarium as it was in Sydneys top 4 things to do. However we were very disapointed after spending $26 to get in and we had seen all the fish whilst in the sea anyway! At least the penguins were pretty cute!
A highlight of my day was when we noticed groups of young girls screaming and waving flags. As me and Amy stalk a certain boyband on a daily basis we knew One Direction were in Sydney so we decided to go ask them. I asked a 12 year old girl who she was screaming for and she shouted "ONE DIRECTION! LOOK THERES HARRY!" Me and Amy screamed and started jumping up and down and only after a few minutes did we realise we were standing with a group of little girls screaming like children. It was embarassing but i had to show my appreciation for Harry Styles who was waving down! The young australian girls were very excited that we were from the UK too and were asking lots of questions about the X Factor. I was more than willing to fill them in! On our way back to the hostel we also found a One Direction official store so i got my picture done with my future hubby. Best Day Ever.
After all this excitement we went for our free bbq at the hostel before searching for cheap wine! We downed our bottles in the room and then went to meet two boys from our dorm in the bar. However we got sidetracked and ended up playing drinking games in another dorm for a while and then we all went out together! We went to the Arts Factory which at first we thought was rubbish but after a few drinks it was really good!

I woke up really sad as i knew it was my last day in Australia :-( and it was mine and Amys last day together which sucked! We decided to spend our last day at Manly so got the ferry over to the beach. We met Dan here (who we did surfers and Byron with) too and spent the day on the beach and walking around the shops. I LOVE manly beach! Me and Dan even got matching hoodies to show our appreciation!
I didnt have to be at the airport until 3am so we decided to go out! The night ended up pretty drunk with me and Amy crying on the street saying bye before i had to get in a taxi! I was and still am absolutely devastated to have left Australia, i want to live here so bad!
This is my last blog from Australia which is even more weird. This has definitely been my highlight from travelling and i have met some amazing people on the way down the East Coast. I loved Thailand but Australia beats it and everywhere else i have ever been! Please someone take me back!
