While we were sitting in the hospital quarters on the beds one girl burst into uncountable tears for now apparent reason. It really weirded her and everyone out. One of the strangest places ive been for sure!Carrienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6754117460183392334.post-85936809579593754122016-11-02T18:34:38.345+11:002016-11-02T18:34:38.345+11:00Send your friend to Sydney for a Q Station tour.

At a Halloween party this weekend, my friend was telling me she went on a ghost tour of the most haunted place in town. Apparently, it was totally lame. Q Station sounds more like what she was hoping for.
