Living it up in Hobart!
Well we spent 3 sketchy days in hobart...at the central backpackers...
the only story that is good to tell about it involves...waterproof cards, a bar, and two irish guys.
We started out in the hostel and asked if anyone was interested in playing some card games.(ya boring, but what else is one to do, and well meegan didnt want to get beaten at crazy 8's anymore). So a few irish boy and an american and us canadian girls started to play, after learning Shithead(good game...and we did convince on of them to introduce themselfs to an entire room of people he didnt know as "shithead" as a consequence for losing the game). we moved on to Traped after that, this is a drinking game that managed to land the canadians and the irish in a bar accross the street that surves $1.50 drinks and this horrible game. We showed up at nine and left at 3:30am...when they stoped serving drinks, ofcourse. After being at the bar for about 1 hour we were known as the Canadian grils who wanted some weed. We made it our mission to find some so that we could smoke...we were drinking afterall!. Eventually our mission was succesful and we had managed to befriend about 3/4 of the bar. Locals are soo nice.
and the adventure ends with us getting up after 4 hours of sleep checking out of the hostel and sleeping in a park for an afternoon while we waited for our 5:30 bus to get out of town. This is an entirely different adventure...stay tuned for our adventures in that C place on the front of the bus. We found out later to be Cygnet!
