It was yet again another great day in Sydney and an even better day to be having a free beach BBQ! It was a record 31 degrees and the perfect setting for a free beach BBQ with our two Sydney Backpackers Hostels, Westend Backpackers and Maze Backpackers.

There are many free activities hosted throughout the week. Westend backpackers hostel is one of the cheapest youth hostels in Sydneys central business district.

It was a wonderful Saturday on the beach and an even better night at the Gaff. The Gaff’s second annual white party was a huge success!!! It was the simplest of themes and worked out really well. When the lights went off and the black lights came on it was a sight to remember!

The party lasted until the early hours in the morning and when some of the Sydney Backpackers left, the sun was out high in the sky. It is lucky that we had an angel with us to make sure we all made it back to our youh hostels safely. Yet again another successful fancy dress theme party at Westend Backpackers Sydney!

It was yet again another free event put on by Westend Backpackers Hostel, one of Sydney’s premiere youth hostels. Westend Backpackers Hostel Sydney offers free activities everyday of the week and with its central location it is just a short bus ride to the beach.  

The sun was shining there were whales in the ocean the scenery could not have been better.  The free BBQ for 70 people went as planned but there were a few unexpected guests in the ocean!!! Two whales were seen frolicking in the ocean less than 50 meters from the shore!!! It was an unbelieveable sight and was part of yet again a great day on the beach in Sydney.

Well all the Sydney backpackers down here at Nomads Maze Backpackers Hostel have been warned they must be on their best behavior this month as we get ready to play our important role as the whole World looks on and Sydney comes to a standstill to Host World Youth Day 2008.

World Youth Day (WYD) is the largest youth event in the world and will be held in Sydney from Tuesday 15 to Sunday 20 July 2008. The Catholic church says it is close to achieving its pilgrims target for World Youth Day with 197,000 local and overseas Catholic youths headed for Sydney to see the Pope.

Backpackers and party people do not have to worry as we have kept a number of beds for our usual guests who are wanting to party it up at the Sydneys famous Maze Backpackers Hostel.

Please be aware that due to the busy period Sydney backpackers are warned to ensure that they pre-book and pay for all accommodation at Nomads Maze Backpackers for the month of July, so if your planning either to join in the festivities in town perhaps go and try your luck for a photo with Pope Benedict XVI or just to party it up with us at our youth hostel, please remember to plan ahead.

From all of us here at Nomads Maze Backpackers Hostel we hope you have a wonderful day and hope to see you soon!!
