After we got settled in the hotel, we decided to walk around Darling Harbour near our hotel. The adventure started when we tried to go downstairs. Our hotel is on the 12th and there are four very small elevators. We got in with at least 6 others and began our journey down. The elevator (despite staying that it could fit 17) was jammed packed but that did not stop an older couple from jumping in. Well, moving very slowly in We got stopped on the next floor and picked up someone else. However, people were too close to the door so it would not close. The older woman decided that our newest friend was the cause so she shoved him out. He continued to press the call button repeatedly so the moment our door would close, it would open right back up again. Dad and I called it quits and decided to take the stairs down from the 9th floor. Big mistake. Traci and Laurel continued down on the elevator and people kept jamming in. Dad and I walked and walked and walked down the stairs. When we got to the bottom, we discovered that the stairs only led outside. Awesome.
The rest of the day was just spent walking around, which was pretty great. Sydney is beautiful. We, however, were pretty exhausted. I think we only lasted an hour or two before we come back to the hotel where we watched an awesomely bad movie. Turns out Laurel likes shopping for movies in the dollar bin at Wal-Mart. Her most recent discovery was 5 Girls. It was almost painful to watch, yet none of us would turn it off. I think we might watch it again.
Bedtime came around 10 and it was glorious.
