Off to Surf Camp

I'm heading up the coast of New South Wales to work at a surf camp for a few weeks. There isn't any Internet available at the camp so I'll be out of touch for a while.

Back in Sydney, Again

I got into Sydney yesterday hopping that I had avoided the New Years rush. I arrived just in time for Sydney Fest so I still had to do a bit of searching for a place to stay. As far as I could tell Sydney Fest is an after New Years, New Years party. There were free concerts all over the city, including a city square packed with about 100,000 people dancing. The highlight of the night for me was seeing an traditional Irish band accompanied by a didgeridoo.
