Tour around City, Sydney

 IMG_5825Another fresh day started with great journey ahead

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Randomly snapped while waiting for my friends to arrive. Argh, I wanted to watch Wicked badly. They are gonna be performing in QPAC on February next year. Boh $$ @.@

If you want to try some awesome DIM SUM for your breakfast, go to Zilver Seafood Restaurant which is located just beside the CAPITOL as you can see from the first pic. (walk along the train trail till to the first T-junction and you will see a complex/sushi restaurant on your right – go into the complex and take the escalator up to first floor)

Egg Tarts is my all-time-favorite. Their dim sum was quite unique and yummy to chew on especially the freshly baked EGG TARTSSSSSS.

While we were sight-seeing around the city, I bumped into my Melbourne friends who were flying off to NZ on that day. Initially, I was supposed to go with them, but in the end, I didn’t T.T

 

We went to Chinese Garden located @Darling Harbour to have a look. This was my 2nd visit to this garden.

The entrance fee is $3 for a student & $6 for an adult.

Beautiful flowers could be seen around the garden

 

The not-so-beautiful side view of the garden has somehow given me some negative impression about this garden.

You could see tall apartment buildings and skyscrappers on one side of the garden

On the other side, there is a big ferry wheel

If you like to dress up with traditional Chinese costumes, try out their variety outfit. Of course, it’s not FOC. We got discount during my first visit for $10 per person when the garden was about to close & I lost all the pictures ><

It was FIFA World Cup season, there was a floating stage on the river and the place (Darling Harbour) was crowded with tourists.

The mascot was actually shaking when he/she was trying to sustain his/her position – weight problem xD

We even went to STAR CITY CASINO to have a look on their interiors, designs, settings, etc. If you wished to gamble/have a look on their machine slots/people playing cards, prepare your PASSPORT for entrance purpose.

 

Tired nao, will continue blogging tomorrow. Night night :)
