we'll be gettin to the airport by train or car which is only a 1/2 hour tops then flyin out from sydney at 8am on a sunday mornin which is a total bitch. then somehow find a way into surfers.
went on the bus up there 2 yrs ago cause we were to late to book a flight. that had to be the most c*ntiest trip i've ever done. it took almost 15 hrs and you've got no chance at sleeping, although i got a couple of 2 minute sleeps with 5 hr intervals inbetween maybe. the seats are as uncomfy as hell... the highlight of the trip would have to be, there was none! although on the bus trip back outta surfers we had a couple of alright looking swedish birds in front of us talkin swedinese language. we thought the only english they knew was "we go byyrronnn bayy" as thats the only words we could understand they were saying until eventually we stopped off at byron and they got off and all of a sudden were talkin alright english. That was after we had been makin comments right behind them and in a normal voice tone about how we would love to bone the "svedish pornstars" and in wat position and all that just for laughs lol
