All gayed out!

Wow wee - what a weekend! Probably the most fun i have had since coming to Sydney.

Friday Night started with a bar crawl around Darling Harbour - starting at Pier 46 and finishing at around 2am in Bungalow 8. The bars were packed out with suits and beautiful people. However i still have not had the confidence to go and speak to any of those guys. I'm not generally a shy person but the women in Sydney have the ability to make you feel bad about yourself and i am too bloody fragile to get knocked back at the moment. That night did end on a bit of a sore note, as i managed to get my rather massive stiletto heel caught in my bracelet whilst trying to get a piece of paper off that was stuck on the bottom of my shoe and proceeded to fall on my arse! Huge bruise on my leg to prove it in the morning.

Saturday Night was the Mardis Gras! I had heard various reports on what to expect, with some people saying it was great and others saying to stay away, but by early on in the day Oxford Street was packed and i could just sense it could not be missed. A friend from home was also in town visiting relatives so decided to meet with her at the Flinders Hotel to watch the parade.

There are no words, well that's a lie here are a few that spring to mind;

Camp
Loud
Shocking
Boobs
Bums
The Pope
Beautiful bodies
Male Cheerleaders
Surf Lifesavers
The Police!
Hilarious
Colourful
Wonderful

Ooh i could go on. It was an experience, and one I'm glad i did. However some of the antics going on on the streets were a little much at times. With lesbians fighting, a man overdosing and someone pissing on my foot......! I also got told i was hot my a girl in the toilets! Definately was a night i will never forget but by 2am i was all gayed out, and had seen enough pink leather, fairy wings and arses to last me for at least another year!
