Dunny’s Birthday – Bristol

Another trip West, this time it was to celebrate the birthday of Chris Dunstan. The sun was out, steaks on the Barbie, chilled beers in hand; what a day! Then it was off to enjoy the night life of Bristol. First stop was a bar overlooking the Clifton suspension bridge. I had a moment here………………yes very gay but it was amazing just being there drinking Guinness. Second stop was a magic bar where you can enjoy a free magic show. After more beers, we went to a night club called Oceania. This place was huge and divided into 4 sections. R&B, Pop, Lounge and space cake music. The vibe was not there so off we went for a late night curry at 1am with slurred speech and everyone looking like a train wreck.
Next day was spent laying around at a park; playing Frisbee, football and throwing around a Nerf . We also managed to watch Middleborough vs West Ham at a pub. Middleborough lost and got relegated into the Champions league for next year. It was quite a funny sight watching grown men cry.
Back home in London now and relaxing before I’m off to Paris in 3 days. Jacqui from Brisbane is in Europe visiting family. So I couldn’t say no when she wanted to make a trip to Paris. Besides, I’m moving there in 3 months, yet in the 10 months I have been in London, I still have not made a trip there. Should be an amazing trip to the City of Lights.

Lake District

So for the long weekend break, we drove 5 hours North-West to the Lake District. The Lake District is kind of a big deal in England. It’s like the Lake Taupo of England. On the first day, we visited Wast Water; the water was calm & clear with rugged hills. The next day, we went on a cruise from Windermere to Ambleside. Ambleside is a small town known for its seafood. The Lake District is best known for its range of outdoor activities, due to the bad weather, we were unable to experience it fully. All and all, it was a peaceful weekend away from London with fresh air and extravagant surroundings.
