It's raining men.

Sydney and Christmas spells one thing - Backpackers!

As we got closer to arriving in Sydney it became apparent that even in mid November that we weren't the only ones looking for somewhere to stay for a couple of months. Accommodation was in short supply but we managed to get a nice little room, 20 mins walk away from the city. Nice. Now, between our room and the city is Oxford street. Neither Clare or I were really aware of Oxford street and its' reputation before we arrived. It did become very clear, very quickly however. Lots of men walking very little dogs was the first clue, bars looking out onto the street that had just blokes looking out and then, possibly the biggest giveaway, rainbow flags all the way down the high street. It really is an eye opener!
