Tuesday 29th April - Day 86

I travel into the city centre to take a look around and do a little bit of window shopping.

At the end of the day I'm not really that familiar with Melbourne. People tell me it's a cosmopolitan town; I do see people from different backgrounds, but I haven't really spent enough time here to appreciate it.

In the evening I go out for a meal at a Thai restaurant. I'm the only one there, but I've eaten a lot of not so good food; takeaway food is cheap in Australia and everything else isn't. The food is good, but not terrific.

Back at the hostel I talk to some of the residents. They're about to revolt as they are fed up with the landlady. She leaves messages for them like, "If you leave dirty dishes in the kitchen, you are a loser". Most of the people staying there are there for at least a week, from what I can gather, and they are a little messy, but these notices seem a little unnecessary. I'm glad I'm leaving in the morning and won't be in broiled in this nonsense
