Back to hotel for a nap to refresh ourselves for the night downtown!!

Arrived back in town and ventured into the bars...first stop Moonshine bar and a glass of banana moonshine!!!! Wandered around from bar to bar......rain put a bit of a damper on things but not enough for most patrons.... Mate is it noisy.....but a big police presence so it's very safe....we caught the last shuttle bus back to hotel and had a nightcap at the bar !!
