Left for my coach in the morning. Getting used to waking up early. A lie in for me is like 9:00am now. Its strange. Seems I've grown out of my "lazy waste of space phase". My Dad should be pleased to hear that.
Caught my coach to Hervey Bay. Stopped off in Brisbane for an hour. Didn't bother looking around. From what i saw as we drove into it there was nothing special. Been really overcast actually. Raining for the past few days. I have a tour booked for the 21st of Fraser Island. Its supposed to be incredible. 2 days/ 3 nights i think. Its a sand island. Supposed to be really tropical with great beaches. Looking forward to it. Just hope it doesn't rain all week.
Arrived at my hostel. I haven't had a bad hostel yet but already this one is pissing me off. Its doesn't have a kitchen, lobby area, TV room or pool table but none of that stuff bothers me. Its just unorganized, which i hate. I booked my room online but they didn't have my booking. They then asked me to email my booking confirmation to them, twice. Then i could only pay by cash. Had to walk in the rain to a cash point and pay. Then they didn't have my tour booking even tho i booked through them. Luckily its all sorted now. The rooms are cheap. $20 a night so that's a plus. However they said i had a 4 bedroom suit to myself as there wasn't many people in the hostel (probably ran a mile after seeing the place). I wasn't the only person in the room. Had 2 German girls in it. I'm not complaining, there cute (but there also German) just don't say its empty when its not. Never staying in a Nomads again. They are a chain of hostels around Australia and so far its the worst hostel Ive stayed in.
Rained for the rest of the evening so i had a shower and went to bed. Doesn't look like this rain is gonna let up anytime soon...
