In Sydney
Well I’m in Sydney now. The weather is unreal. Nice city. Although I don’t feel as much like a celebrity as I did in the states because over here there are loads of Irish. A lot more than in the US. I’ve seen people walking around with Port Laois jersies and “I love tay and hang sandwiches” t-shirts.
The hotel is lovely but I have to pay for internet access so I don’t think I’ll be writing any more posts from the hotel. I walked around today a bit. Google maps on the iPhone is a life saver. Makes it so easy to walk around. Headed down to Sydney harbour to have a look at the opera house, also went to the Rock and just chilled out for the day.
I sussed out a few places that will be showing the Ireland vs. Wales match at 04:30. I’d say I’ll hang on until the replay tomorrow. Everyone is going to be drunk watching it live and being on your own in a crowd like that is pretty lonely. A Sunday afternoon might be better craic. I can head back to the hotel and watch the boxing on RTE.ie again. Oh yeah, which means I will have to pay for internet access. So maybe there will be more posts.
Anyway here are some pictures I took on my phone. I’m going to head across the road to Hyde park to read a book and chill out a little.

How long are you down in Sydney for? An old friend of mine is down there for a couple of months, good guy who knows the area. If you’re still down there a while and could use a local drinking buddy, lemme know I’ll see if I can put you in touch with him.

Thanks Bobby. I’ve been doing well so far. We’ll see next week if the people I am training are good fun and willing to go out in the evening. If not I might take you up on that.
