Australia: Sydney

George and I spent 2 days in Sydney before my flight to Vietnam and his flight home. We decided to stay in a mixed 8 bed dorm room at a hostel and had a blast. Our roommates were very friendly and welcoming. We had a mix of people from the USA, Canada, Netherlands and the UK. With only one full day in the city, we rode the ferry across the bay and went to the Taranga zoo for most of the day. I had hoped to see a salt water crocodile but did not. Our roommates turned us on to some box wine which we drank both nights since it was by far the cheapest form of alcohol in Sydney. I was amazed at how expensive things were in Sydney, probably close to on par with some areas of New York. I will have to upload photos later on since the computers in Vietnam don't have as many features as the one's in Australia and NZ.
