My Day in the City...with out amy :D
(apparently I didn't post this I hit Save so now its posted with pictures and all)

On Friday Amy had a training day in the city. But there was a small problem...she wasnt confident on how to get there on her own. So I offered to spend the day in the city not with her but there so that she would have company on the train and she wouldnt get lost. I asked amy to bring her camera so that i could photo diary everything i did and make a very boring to some picture story thingy....so first things first let it be known that at my first stop...the U.S. Consulate I had to drop off everything but my passport and social security card at the desk...so out went Amy's camera which I didnt get back because i forgot about it till my last stop :D (whoops :D) anywyas pics maybe lacking because of the no camera thing so i took them all on my phone :D

Ok so here we have the nurses walk. THis is the set of streets that Amy wanted to go down on the night of fi's hen's night because she needed a bathroom type place. On friday i made 2 discoveries. 1) there were no toilets here like the sign said but in a set of shops not even on the Nurses Walk and 2) that it was no where near as scary as bec and ali made it out to be. :D

Next stop...Despite amy and I thinking that her training thingy was right in the middle of george street it really wasnt that far a walk to get the the fantastic beer people place...but they wouldnt let me in even though the sign said open :( And on account of having all day walking 30 mins to get there really didnt seem like all that far.

Essentials :D No dead babies here. Thats something new.
OK!! The jury was in and my bag was getting too heavy so it was time to decide what should stay and what should go...The Red Bull was drunk as was the bottle of water and the coins were changed to notes by some very silly german tourists (who didnt want their picture taken lol) and all the trashy bits of paper and things were thrown out :D....yay for lighter bags.

Sorry i dont know how to rotate pics off my phone...this was on the nurses walk. Earlier in the day Amy and i had decided that her $6 umbrella from a service station was ridiculously overpriced. However this proves that this may not necessarily have been the case! lol!


A nice looking bit of street back on the nurses walk??? I think NOT!!!! You're looking at 2 solid inches of puddle right there!! I was soaked to my ankles and not very happy at all!!!! Although amy and i did laugh about it later!
Whats up the road a bit from gukki!! SES where I bought a nice looking $10 dress...but later when i tried it on at home it wasnt really dress length...it was an extremely long shirt lol.

I dont think you are actually supposed to take pictures at art studios...whoops! But i like this pic. The only things that are actually there are the lady in the red dress and the lying down girl across the botton...the rest is a reflection of the buildings and flight of stairsbehind me.

Anywyas it was an awsome day but i didnt get any pics of me and amy and i forgot to take pics of a lot of things jsut because it was raining for most of the day but it was fun!! And i got some solid people watching time in...its fun and its interesting :D
