Sydney, Australia - Day 1

The flight was good. Flying brought a lot of memories back, the european tour days on the road, on airports, or whatever, but this time I felt like missing something, or someone.

I arrived in Sydney at 07.25 am, walked out of the plane and followed the rest.
I had to stand in a huge line for passport control, it was quite easy: a nice police lady asked me where I was planning to stay, I said Strattons Hostel (not!) and she said it was okay. Then, went to pick up my backpack and met Dan (my seat partner) again. He suggested me to go and get a sim card for OZ, so we walked out of the baggage claim section and went through international police with any trouble.

Once at the arrivals hall, I found myself in between of people from different corners of the world, it was the first time that I actually saw so many cultures mixed. There were A LOT of Asian people. Pretty cool thing.

We went to Vodaphone's desk and got a sim card For free, i charged it with 10 bucks. Two minutes later, trying to put the sim card on, I looked in front of me and some big tattoed arms looked pretty familiar to me, I looked up and it was Kerry King from Slayer!!! I was holding like 3 bags at the time that taking pictures didn't cross my mind at all, plus, I don't even like Slayer, but it was cool though.

Dan had to leave so we said good bye to each other. Then everything went bored and i spent the rest of the morning on my iPhone doing nothing. I had to buy one adaptor to charge the battery. 12.50$ it's a bit expensive, isn't it? I'm gonna need it for the rest of the trip anyway.

At 1 pm, I went to the international departures section. Found a socket and stayed there loading my iphone's battery For about two hours.

I got lunch at Macca's (oh yes, how surprising) and then went to the seats section. I seated there cause there was dude playing his guitar and i was bored to hell, so I asked him and he lended me his guitar. Then we started talking. He was Pierre, from France, he has been waiting for his girlfriend who's coming from
Paris as well, so we started talking, got a couple of drinks and the afternoon wasn't that bad, a guitar in my hands made things better.

At around 7 pm, another french dude joined us. He is staying during the night as well, so he and Pierre started talking in french and i just fell asleep For 3 hours (not bad at all for an airport nap, ha!)

Now it's 5 minutes to 23.00 pm and we might be kick out of the airport, if that's the case, I'll have to walk to the domestic terminal and find a 24/7 Macca's to spend the night in.

My flight to Brisbane is 7 hours away from me. Can't wait to meet Piotr and Kasia again and my beloved friends from Aussie! It's gonna be a blast.

Less than 24 hours to see the boys in action again!

P.S: I'm making updates from my iPhone since I didn't bring my laptop. Pics are shitty, but it's something.
