We spent 8 wondeful days in Sydney and I am suffering from serious post holiday blues now!. We had great weather, company and even enjoyed some wonderful Malaysian and Italian Cuisine! Accommodation at the Start City Apartments was fantastic at A$320 per night for 2 families and it was within walking distance to Darling Harbour and even China Town. The kids had great fun at the Taronga Zoo, Wildlife Park and Sydney Aquarium during the day and we had lots of fun playing charade at night, with Uncle Jonas and papa as the best entertainers! It was also good to spend time with grandma, who will next turing 70 next year ( but does not look her age at all!). The only disappointment was the day tour to Port Stephens where we did not have much luck with seeing the dolphins! The adultswere also not too lucky during our "gai gai" sessions at night and we are thankful that the Singapore government imposed the surcharge here for Casinos! Check out some of the highlights of the trip!
This was on day one where we went the the Campsie foodfair and chanced upon a little fun fair at the park where all the rides were free. We waited 20 mins to try this ride but it was worth the wait! This operates like an auto car so we saw a few kids " crashed" into the barriers before us. Jacob and Tessa both did well, controlling the car on their own and we survived without any accidents!
Thanks to Uncle Jona's sharp eyesight, we spotted the captain of Australian soccer team Lucas Neill, taking the same lift as us in Star City.
