U2!!!!!

Up about 10:00, I slept great!! Court was cold.

Showered, went to IGA and bought some cereal and jam and had cereal and toast for breakfast.

We walked downtown and I bought a fleece vest and Court bought a nice pair of shoes. She's been applying for jobs already and has potentials.

We went to the Travellers Contact Point (a spot for travellers (esp. backpackers) to go for information on jobs, accomodations, travel info, etc.) and Court called about a job, and she has to e-mail her CV (resume) to them.

We got back to the hostel about 3:30 and cooked spaghetti.

Made arrangements with Anna to meet her at her hostel at 7:30. Hung out at our hostel until about 6:50, then walked to Wake Up! (Anna's hostel) about 7:45. We hung out at the bar at Wake Up! until about midnight, then went to another bar called Something Murphy's (can't remember the first name), and they had a U2 tribute band playing, called "Rattle and Hum". They were great!!! They even kind of looked like U2.

This bar had at least three stores. The main level was where the band was playing (when they finished, recorded music was played) and it had a big dance floor. In the basement was another dance floor with a DJ spinning and mixing dance, hiphop, house, etc. And I think the 2nd floor was the games room (pool, maybe darts), but I didn't go up there. It was quite a cool bar.

The bar didn't close at 2:00. Nor did it close at 2:30 or 3:00. Or at 4:00. At 4:00AM, I was pretty exhausted, so was Court, so we got Anna and headed back to the guest house.

Court got us lost on the way back to the guest house, taking us in the opposite direction. We finally had to ask someone on the street where Kings Cross was, and they said it was in the opposite direction, and a long way away, and they suggested getting a cabbie, which we did. For $8, the cabbie took us back to our hostel. Now we're even, Court, I got us lost in KL at the start. Hehehe!!
