Things I forgot to mention in the last post....

1) My new shoes 2) First stop on the wine tour 3) Last stop on the tour 4) Elizabeth and Nathan (aka Don Carlos) during Mexican Night (don't ask)

I forgot to mention a few things in the last post. First, I changed my hair colour as you can see in the pictures. Hayley wanted to go darker and I got caught up the excitement. So, late one night while in Sydney we headed to Coles in Chinatown, bought some dye and coloured our hair. Hayley hates hers. Second, I bought some new shoes while in Melbourne. This is exciting and notworthy for two reasons: 1) I wanted to get them in Sydney, but thought I could buy them cheaper on-line. Turns out they are limited editions and only sold through one store--Hype. So, I bought them while in Melbourne and now I am a happy camper and 2) they make me feel like a 21st century Dorthy only instead of Oz I'm in OZ and instead of lions and tigers and bears there are kangaroos, platypuses (platypie?) and Koalas (which are not bears, actually). Third, I went to the Wildlife Center and the Aquarium while in Sydney. The last thing I forgot (how I forgot, I don't know) is the wine tour I took in July.

The wine tour was for a friends birthday. It was involved the group of friends I met at the hostel. We went to five or six wineries in the Hunter Valley. I got to try "O," which is amazing and Chile schnapps. One of the best days ever.

I think I also forgot to mention our theme nights, but I get the feeling there are some stories better left untold, but I've given you a photo as a hint...

Also, its been raining for three days.
