So I know I didn't like Sydney the first time, but this time I had better weather, so I liked it a bit more. I was also in Sydney the day the Prime Minister said sorry to the Aboriginal people for the lost generation. I met a guy from Edmonton who knew a few people from back home, so we hung out my last few days, as well as a Swedish girl we met in the hostel. Went to Bondi Beach finally, attempted to get my last bit of tan before heading back to wintery Europe, but as you can see I'm still nice and pasty. I wouldn't say I love Sydney now, but I have a better impression than I first did. I still get a better vibe from Melbourne, but Sydney's an alright place if you're with good people and have good weather.
