Took a walk to Katoomba Falls. It was very foggy. Very refreshing. The walk was about 2-3 hours long. Didn't take any pictures but if you've seen the Blue mountains from one angle you've seen it from every angle. Its more amazing when your here. Ive started i walking with my headphones in and then when i reach my destination i take them out and just listen to the waterfalls or animals. Its actually a very a relaxing and uplifting experience.Could easily spend a few hours just looking out over the valley. It kind of shrinks away from you if you look at it too long.
Ate my leftover pasta when i got back. Still good. Relaxed as later i was going to go out for a few drinks with some guy named Lucas who's staying in my dorm. Hes 20 from Berlin. Hes cool tho. I ordered a pizza from dominoes (couldn't be bothered to cook two days in a row) I had a pizza with 800kcal per slice. It was called the Bacon Double cheese burger. I regret it now as i think about what that did to my insides. It was so good tho. Cant always be healthy i guess and they had a discount day where all pizzas where half price. Got it for $8.
I have always been impressed with the cleanliness of the hostels and the people in them. They all take care of the bathrooms which is important i think. I need a clean toilet and shower. I mean i have come across the odd skidmark or pube on the toilet seat but it doesn't bother me that much. Rarely i will find a little floater, a remnant of a shit well needed. However i went into the bathroom and found to my disgust that someone had apparently left a huge turd in the bowl. I fact i think they also left there sphincter and half there intestinal tract in the toilet as well. Obviously so impressed by there accomplishment they made no effort even try to flush it. Now that i think about it they didn't even try to wipe as there was no toilet paper in the bowl. Perhaps he didn't want to block its sheer beauty and left it there for people to view. He might as well have placed a plaque next to it. Easily the worst toilet experience Ive had so far...
Went out for a drink at the local pub. Played pool. I'm actually improving. We met some girl who at first talking to her anyone would think she was in drugs. She seemed to be in her own little world. Smiling away at the rest of the world. I had to get conformation from the rest of here friends and her that she wasn't on drugs, and that's "just how she is". Serious hippie. Never met one so was interesting. Apparently she had been living on her own since 14, just travelling. Ive met some really unique people on this trip but she was easily the most unique...
Ps. As I'm typing this I'm having to listen to these fucking kids in the hostel lobby. There parents just let them walk all over them. They scream and make stupid noises almost all the time. I really feel like bitch slapping one of them just to sort them out. The parents i mean, not the kids. Its not the kids fault there fucking idiots, is it?
