Ich weiß noch nicht mal wo ich anfangen soll. Fing schon mit dem Flug an, ausgebucht. Hatte ich das letzte Mal als ich in Australien gelandet bin. Die meisten …

We arrived in Surfers on thursday afternoon and Emily made the bold decision of taking charge of the map (usually Jen's job). Unsurprisingly we ended up walking over 10mins with our huge backpacks in the wrong direction until Jen took over and rectified the situation. Our hostel was right next to the Q1 building the highest in Surfers. Our hostel …

Yesterday we visited Movie World for the second time. The Superman ride had been re-opened so we went on that, plus all the others we had been on previously.

we liked the location right opposite the Q1 building & right next to the beach. the kitchen was of ok standard and the bedding etc was clean. we just didnt like that you couldnt bring your own alcohol into the hostel as they have their own bar and the prices of the drinks in their bar are quite expensive and the drinks are understocked!not a very sociable hostel!
