Best Western Capri Plaza Hotel Newcastle

... a walk up hill and checked out the old Army fortress which looked really cool with all the container ships in the background, it almost gives you an idea of what it may have looked like back in the days.
We finished Auditing all the schools within 7 working days, including 10 schools on the Monday.
So finishing early meant that the film was not ready to be sent, so we found ourselves with a week off. Sean went back down to Canberra/Melbourne and i decided to take a trip to Broken Hill.

... box, very expensive lunch, for $25 we reckon we could go out to dinner in Ohio at a nice sit down restaurant. Then we updated our blog (lucky you!) and went to free BINGO night with FREE sausages and then came back and they were watching my all time fave movie of all time ""Shawshank Redemption"" and now we are in real time...how cool is that?? Tommorrow...bus to SYDNEY!!!!

... We had a drive along the coast which was packed full of people! There is a man made sea pool full of people swimming lengths. It looks as though they may have galas there too as there were starting blocks on the sides. We tried to find a beach called 'Redhead' but somehow missed it! Anyway, flying visit and now down to Sydney!

... up for it. Dinner fast in our bellies, it was time for a little trivia. Our team being named the Batman Ninja Turtles oosa oosa or something along those lines, end up getting second in the end winning a bottle of sparkling wine for the whole table. After the trivia was all done with we end up staying a bit longer talking with the Canadian girls before walking back to the hostel and calling it a night.

... this was a new port of call that didn't appear to have much to offer. We managed to do and see a variety of things for a very reasonable price, and I would recommend this company. Unfortunately, next season's itinerary for the Celebity Millenium does not stop in Newcastle. We were a bit late for dinner, and then because we had to finish our packing, we decided to skip the movie "Friends with Money" and the magician performing in the Celebrity Theater.

... zu lustig um nicht zu lachen. Ich habe ihm nachher auf dem Campingplatz davon erzählt und selbst beim erzählen noch vor Lachen geweint. Er hat dann aber doch noch schön geboogiet, oder so. Ich bin auch rein gegangen. Das Wasser war herrlich. Ich habe mein Glück so mit den Wellen zu schwimmen probiert und bin einmal fast ertrunken. Nachdem also meine Nasennebenhöhlen gut mit Seewasser ausgespült worden waren, habe ich mich wieder an den Strand zurückgezogen. That night we were ...

... part of the fun and adventure. One thing that makes travelling all worth while. Anyway, apologies for swaying away. Port Stephens is a small bay made up of beautifully clean small towns, all with amazing views over the calm, turquoise waters that make this place the dolphin capital of New South Wales. The only other experience we have of seeing dolphins in the wild was our return ferry from Fraser Island, where 3 dolphins were swimming and gliding in and out of the water only a few feet ...

... some pubs, weird) and went down to the beach after the country club closed, where most of the girls were, and just hung out. It was a nice night. I woke up in the morning at 7:30 and heard everyone cleaning up and said screw that, and slept for another hour. They're nuts. But it was fun. We were so hungry last night so I went out for dinner with Suzie, Meg (her teammate) and Meg's boyfriend Vlad, at the Prem ...

Well, after just over 36 hours in Necastle I can truly say that I wont come back here :) Previously an industrial town, they have tried to revamp it into a holiday location. It is not very impressive and I couldn't find a great deal to do here. The hostel is lovely, an old listed building that had heaps of character. I would imagine that you need to make your own fun here and I am ...
