Day 5 - Goodbye Melbourne, Hello Sydney

Good day today. The fact that India faced a miserable loss meant that we had an extra day to hang in Melbourne. We started the day late after the big ABSINTH night last night - woke up only when the hotel management told us we had already overstayed two hours beyond check out time.

So checked out and checked into the Ponna residence to have lunch - lovely rice paper rolls made by A and her mum (Thank you A and mum!).

Headed to St. Kilda's beach and played a bit of beach cricket. I'm thinking some of the girls were also better than the way the Indian team fared! But I won't bitch about the cricket anymore.


Headed to the airport after a couple of beers and some food at the beach.

After and hour long (or short) flight, we landed in Sydney and checked into our luxurous serviced apartment where I negotiated my way to taking the couch and letting the rest of the boys share the one bed we have!!... Does pay to be tall sometimes!!!

More from Sydney tomorrow.
