Last Day in Melbourne & First Night in Adelaide

Last night I actually hung out with four of my roommates. They were all from England and one was Dutch. They decided to save some money, so we went to the market down the street and got two boxes of wine. They were 4 liters each and we got one red & one white and they were so cheap it didn't really matter what type of red or white wine it was. We went back to the Hostel and played some drinking games. We finished both boxes in about three hours and they all went out to the bars, but since I had to be up at 6:00 am I decided against it. I was actually pretty drunk when I went to bed, I guess cheap wine will do that. I got up a little late around 6:20am, so I had a take a quick shower and head for the train station. I got there right at 7:15am which was the boarding time, but I had to check my luggage. I got everything worked out and I was on the train by 7:30am. The train left around 7:40am and I went back to sleep. I watched a couple of movies they were showing on the train. The first movie was terrible and it was called The Thief Lord. It was about some orphans who lived with the Thief Lord in a old theatre and stole stuff to make money. They got job that would pay $50,000 to steal a wooden wing from some lady. This wooden wing was the missing piece from a magical merry-go-around that would change adults into children and children into adult depending on which creature you rode and for how long. Like I said it was terrible and really stupid, but it did help the time go by. The second movie was better is was about a Texas basketball team that was half black players and they ended up winning the NCAA tournment and the coach only played black players in the final game against Kentucky due to all the racism surrounding the tournment. I didn't catch the name, but it was awesome compared to the first movie. I arrived in Adelaide around 7:45pm, so it was a twelve hour train ride. The weird thing is that the time was actually 7:15pm local time when we arrived, because there was some kind of time change. I have never heard of a half hour time change, but who really understands the Australians anyways. I got a $4 shuttle from the train station to the Raglans Backpacker where I was staying, which wasn't a bad deal since it was about a 10 minute trip. Raglans wasn't that great and for $27 per night I guess I expected alot more. The place is really old and my door actually didn't have a door knob on it, so you have to put your finger in the hole to try to close it. To turn on the one bathroom light you had to pull a string that went up into the ceiling. I also had to put a $10 deposit and pay a $2 cleaning fee to get a blanket and there is only a bottom sheet on the beds. They don't service dinner at the hostel either, so I took a walk down the street until I ran into a Hungry Jack, its a Burger King, and got some food. I am staying in a 4 person dorm style room, but last night I was the only one in it, so it wasn't all bad.

They were 4 liters each and we got one red & one white and they were so cheap it didn't really matter what type of red or white wine it was.
