Land of Aus Pt. 1

Land of Aus Pt. 1

Over my 3 week holiday in Australia I've taken a thousand or so shots,

so as you can imagine, there is a 100-1 shit to successful ratio.

The easiest way to tell you how I've found it is to say it's a safe America 

where the people are happy and you can find your next best friend

 filling up his car at the pump next to you. (For those of you that 

haven't travelled to America or Australia, you probably should 

get your arse into gear and do it.)

We arrived into Sydney Airport around 9pm Thursday 20th and the view was 

like no other,just as the Sun had set we broke through the 

clouds to reveal the glowing houses and busy roads,

 amazed by the size of the city and the obvious special ingredient

 of Sun and heat that enables the people and businesses to flourish

 we embarked on the final drive of our Journey to the house that 

would become our home for the next few weeks.

The town of Thornton, population just under 8,000 is a grain of sand in 

the vast Suburban life of the main Cities. It has a local Shopping centre,

School and Skatepark. But for anything else there's the closest City...

Newcastle (yes like America, Australia has a lot of town and city 

names from Britain, weird I know) is a nice little place an hour or 

so up from Sydney, it has three Beaches and a shit load of bay view 

apartments, and I mean a shit load. There's all your average 

sea food restaurants and back street Drug dealers but apart from

 that the one thing that I seriously enjoy is the life that it holds,

 there's such decency the people that live in it, and in fact, 

everywhere I've travelled to whilst being here are just amazing,

 yeah you get the occasional tramp and fight between two hot shots 

but so be every City you ever travel to.
