Its good to be me

I'm at Bondi Beach right now. Its absolutely gorgeous. the water is bright azure and the sand is so nice. At the beach back home (Toronto, for the peeps in cyber space who don't know me), they're covered in pepples and glass and junk. Not Bondi, pure sand. I don't want to leave this beach. Its that perfect. Earlier today, I went to Sydney Wildlife World.
We don't have too many kuala bears and kangaroos back home. So its nice to see that. One thing that I could have done without are the employees that walk around with snakes and lizards (with their bare hands!) and ask you to pet them. I'd like to keep my fingers attached to my body, thank you.

One really good thing about Sydney (well, two to be exact) are the public parks. One I go to in the morning to jog is Hyde Park. Its right in downtown Sydney which is perfect because its right by my hostel. Another one is the Royal Botanic Garden. It houses many exotic plants and animals and landscapes (well, not exotic to Australians).

One of the more creepy indiginous creatures are Flying Foxes, aka BATS!
Now I don't recall ever seeing a bat up close before. So its a little unnerving when you look up and there are like 200 hanging right above you.

I'm going to go to Blue Mountain tomorrow. But right now, I have to apply my 13th layer of sunscreen.

Cheers
