My quiet chill out day in Melbourne

Got home so late last night, and to be honest just a little bit drunk that i did very little today as i was so wrecked. But its all good!!!

Went to Thomas's bar last night, Mrs Parmas, on Little Bourke Street. Drank some of their different beers and chilled out while Thomas was working. When he finished up we sat down for some more beers with his workmate. Then we went to the bottle shop and bought more beer and drank it back at his flat. Beer is the common thread in all of this, i didn't get back to the hostel and into bed until near 4am.

So didn't get up today until midday.

Wandered around the shops, bought a new watch for surfing as the other one has a leather strap and is starting to get on my nerves a bit. Met Thomas and roisin for lunch and a wander around the shops. in between the showers, the sun is shining.

I really like the vibe of Melbourne, is so laid back and not so in your face like Sydney is.

Heading back to Mrs Parmas tonight for dinner. Parmas are mega popular in Melbourne so i have to go try one. I don't really know what they are but i will let you know tomorrow.

Deliberating about extending my time in Australia. I have to leave by the 28th Feb, as my tourist Visa runs out, so i could do a tour from Melbourne right up the centre of Australia, past Ayres rock and onto Darwin. Thomas, Roisin and Roisin's Sister are doing it so i would have company!! It makes sense, i just need to ring Virgin and try to change my flights back. i might still do it even if i cant change my flights, and perhaps come back via America if i had to get another flight. So many options really so I'm just getting it sorted in my head.
