Hong Kong - day 1!
2019年3月2日, 香港 ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C
We landed in Hong Kong at around 8am and got on a bus to our hotel after a very easy journey through Hong Kong airport! We arrived at our hotel in Causeway Bay, dropped our bags and then headed out for a wander before we could check in. We wandered up the waters edge towards Wan Chai, and got our bearings of the city. We then came back and checked into our hotel and soon went out again to keep exploring. Getting on the metro to Quarry Bay, we wandered round the extensive residential areas, amazed by the architecture and how so many people could live in one building! Following this, we got on the metro to Central where we met some of mums friends Christine and Barry who took us for a very fancy dinner at the Ladies Recreational Club, we enjoyed the view and had a yummy dinner! After this we got on the star ferry across to Tsim Sha Tsui and walked along the harbour admiring the city at night!もっと詳しく

Hong Kong - Day 2
2019年3月3日, 香港 ⋅ 🌧 18 °C
We woke up at about 10.30 slightly jet lagged and decided to head to Mongkok to the ladies market on the MTR. After an easy journey, we wandered around the market making a few purchases and looked around the surrounding area. As we had to get back to Hong Kong Island, we wandered down through Jordan down Nathan Road towards TST where we looked at the city in the day and it was certainly just as impressive! After taking some pictures and taking in the view, we got the star ferry again (for a whopping 37p) back over to Wan Chai. After getting off a very busy Star Ferry - due to it being a Sunday - we walked towards the Grand Hyatt hotel where we were meeting Christine and Barry for afternoon tea. We were absolutely spoilt with the most delicious food and company and came out feeling so full that we won’t have to eat for a few days! After leaving them we headed up the peak on the bus and got a front spot at the viewing platform for the lights show at 8pm. It was as amazing as I remember, and we were so lucky it was such a clear night! An amazing day!もっと詳しく

Hong Kong - day 3
2019年3月4日, 香港 ⋅ ⛅ 20 °C
Today was such a good day! Millie and I woke up at 10 and it was sunny so quickly got dressed and caught the bus up to Victoria peak. We decided to do the walk around the top of the Peak and so started walking along the footpath. We soon reached the most incredible viewing point over the whole city and luckily, due to the weather, the visibility was insane! So lucky. We walked around the rest of the trail stopping at numerous points for pics and to look at the view. After returning to the peak look out where the trail starts and ends, we decided to go to a cafe that looks right out onto the city for some lunch, it was the best view ever. After this, we got the bus down and came back to the hostel to get changed as it was getting a little chilly (20 degrees so not actually too bad haha). We then got the star ferry for a whopping 27p today to TST and looked at the harbour as a very stormy sky set in over the city. Luckily we had our raincoats! Fortunately the rain held off for the next few hours, so we headed over to Temple Street Night Market. Here, we wandered through the market making some purchases and stopping for the most delicious street food. Was so much fun!もっと詳しく

Hong Kong - day 4
2019年3月5日, 香港 ⋅ 🌧 20 °C
Today was the most hilarious day ever. We set off from our hotel at 11 planning to do the Dragons Back hike from Happy Valley to Shek O however this didn’t quite go as planned. We started on the Hong Kong trail and took a wrong turn somewhere meaning we got stuck on the trail and were walking for 5 hours. When we eventually could get off the trail, we realised we hadn’t even started hiking the dragons back and so started this, already so tired from our 5 hours before!! Not only this, but we couldn’t find our way down from the Dragons back so this took another 1.5 hours! Was hilarious. Very tired, very thirsty, very sweaty and very hungry we came back to our hotel on the bus finally after 6.5 hours hiking! Far longer than we’d intended to walk for hahah. We then bought some dinner and had a picnic at the top of the peak In our VERY comfy clothes with an amazing view of the city below!! Our last night in Hong Kong - we will miss this city!もっと詳しく

Today we woke up to so so much rain for our last day in Hong Kong. We checked out of our hotel and headed to the ladies market in Mongkok to do some last minute purchases! We bought our things and the next minute it was absolutely torrential rain! Was crazy. We headed to a cafe for lunch and hung out there writing our diaries etc. We then decided to get the star ferry over the harbour at 8pm to see the lights show! It was an amazing last view of the city. We flew to Sydney that night at 11pm! So excited for Australia!もっと詳しく

Today was such a good day. We got up super early and walked to Sydney central station where we were catching the bus to Katoomba to get to the blue mountains. The sun was out and we were so excited. We soon arrived after a 2 hour train ride and it was incredible! The views were amazing and the waterfalls were equally as impressive. We walked around and did a hike and then had lunch at a viewing platform! Was amazing. We then came back on the train and got changed before heading out to the opera house in the sun!! We had a couple of drinks at the opera bar to celebrate Millie’s birthday tomo. Was so much fun and the bar had such good vibes!もっと詳しく

Today was Millie’s bday!! I stayed up last night and decorated the room with some balloons and banners and we woke up late ish. We then walked down to circular quay and caught the ferry to Manly beach. The journey was amazing, although the weather wasn’t that good the ferry went straight past the opera house and the Sydney harbour bridge - was so cool! We walked around the town and there was a market on as it was a Saturday so we looked around it and bought a sandwich for lunch. As the day got brighter we sat and ate lunch on the beach before heading down the beach where there was a giant beach volleyball tournament going on - was so cool! We caught the ferry back, had dinner at Claire’s and had some drinks before heading to a club called side bar to celebrate at for Millie’s bday! Was such a fun day!もっと詳しく

Today we woke up rather hungover and had to pack our bags to head to Bondi Beach. After tiredly packing we caught the train to Bondi Junction and soon arrived at Bondi Beach after carrying our bags all the way down! It was amazing weather and we sunbathed, it was so busy as it was a Sunday but such a good vibe! We then went to our Airbnb which is so cool - it’s like a shared house between 4 different guests so we just have a bedroom in rhe house and then everyone shared the kitchen living room etc. We then headed back to the beach to sunbathe and we ended up falling asleep on the beach! We headed back up to the Airbnb, stopping at the supermarket on the way to buy some dinner and cooked some pizzas and took these and salad to the beach for dinner - was so yum! We stayed down there and chatted, watched the surfers at dusk and came back and showered. Such a good first day - we love Bondi so far!もっと詳しく

Today was the best day! We decided to wake up at 6.15am to see the sunrise at Bondi Beach! We packed a picnic lunch and our beach bags and headed down at about 6.45. We sat on the beach as the sun rose and it was beautiful. Whilst we were sitting there a man came over and said he was about to propose and asked us if we could take some pictures. We took them and it was the CUTEST thing ever! After this we did the walk along from Bondi to Coogee and came back for açai bowls for breakfast, was so yum! We then spent the day sunbathing on the beach and staying for golden hour, was the most beaut day! We came back, cooked pasta, chilled and chatted. Such a fun day!!もっと詳しく

After this we all had a snooze and headed out to watch the amazing sunset on the beach followed by a free dinner! We went out again and watched lots of buskers on the streets before going clubbing! I met the nicest people this night. We’re hoping to hang out with them again at the Gold Coast!もっと詳しく

Today we woke up feeling fresh after our night in and headed down to the bike shop after our free hostel breakfast (not the best but free food is always nice on a budget haha)! We rented bikes which had baskets on and everything and cycled along surfers paradise beach down the Gold Coast to Burleigh Heads. It was so beaut and we sat and ate lunch on the beach which we had cooked last night! We then locked our bikes up and walked through the national park in Burleigh Heads to the creek and chilled there! Was so nice and felt kind of like the rainforest a bit! We then headed back and cycled home, as fast as we could because the bike shop was closing soon hahhaa. We had dinner on the beach and then went to this huge market along the sea front - was so cool and we bought matching necklaces! We then watched the most amazing busker and headed back to our hostel. We were planning on having a night in but we got pulled into going on another club crawl however we managed to get the price down from $80 to $10!!! Bargain! We went out with friends from the other night and had the best time!もっと詳しく

Today we woke up and had our final free breakfast before checking out of the hostel. We went and chilled by the hostel pool and met the nicest girl who was also coming on our bus later that day! We all got the bus to Brisbane together which was actually really short and decided we would spend the day together tomorrow! Millie and I checked into our hostel called Nomads which was kind of odd like a school and there was such a range of ages in our room - from 18-65!! Weird! We headed out to explore Brisbane and walked to south bank where we chilled and had some food. We then went back to our hostel to get ready for bed but bumped into some friends from Gold Coast and they somehow managed to convince us to go out haha! We all went for a big pre with some Irish boys and all us girls and then went out to the club attached to our hostel! Was so much fun!もっと詳しく

We chilled here with our friend from the bus and as we lay there 2 girls from Reigate college spotted us and came over - so random! We sunbathed, swam, got smoothies but it was SO hot we could hardly bare it. We went back to our hostel and on our way back got given a voucher for free dinner! We ordered dinner and ate on the roof of our hostel it was so nice!! We then chilled, watched a documentary together on the roof and went to bed:)もっと詳しく

Today we woke up early and packed all our stuff up before checking out of the hostel. I had a dentist appointment at 9am so we headed to the dentist which was handily right opposite our hostel and I got my tooth fixed. She did such a good job, was so pleased! We then went and got the nicest açai bowls for breakfast and ate on the grass in the middle of the city. After breakfast, we rented these electric scooters that everyone rides in Brisbane and omg it was the most fun thing ever! You just stand with two feet on the scooter and shoot around, was so so good! We then headed to the botantical gardens on our scooters and chilled here and wrote our diaries for like 2 hours ( we were quite behind haha). After, we headed back to our hostel and Collected our bags before getting on the bus to Noosa! We arrived at our hostel Nomads and checked into our room, there was the nicest boy in our room called Charlie so we went for dinner us 3 and then got ready to go out!
