Granted our cities and towns are infrastructurally shyte but there is a light hearted charm about them which is probably attributed to the gobshytes that populate them. Brisbane was another place that appeared functional but where I thought people were just watching the life clock tick by. Any other places in the world people have found to be functionally dull?

Saying that though, I did think the whole area down by the lagoon was quite impressive, but just on a warm afternoon, lazing about. Had friends who loved the place though, so suppose its just what appeals to you.

For instance this was the only internet access in the village. Yes that is a bus in someones front garden.

I too served time on the bus mentioned above. I think the hotels/ hostels and bus companies have some arrangement going on so theres **** all buses leaving each day and you kind of are forced to stay at least a night or two- all you need is half a day or less.
