This post will consist of many random things that my family and I did while we were in Sydney the day after we went to The Three Sisters and Katoomba Falls. If you missed that post, feel free to check it out here.



First day out, we walked, and shopped and ate.. Had the best time in a looong while since I completed my viva and survived a sem at my new job. It  was Boxing day week so plenty of good deals, discounts and epic steals while we were there.


First pic of us ladies for the day.




At a T2 tea shop.


Took this from my Insta. Look at the variety of tea.. A must visit for all you tea lovers out there.


Spinach Pide in Westfield Mall. The lil's sis found this in a food court at the top floor. Delicious! There were other flavours too but spinach was the best.


Tired of walking alllll day..and yes.. I'm a daddy's girl. :)


Some of the goodies I bought.. So much cheaper here than in Malaysia. Bought some perfume and cosmetics too but forgot to take pics. :P

Next day, Sydney harbour, the Opera House and Darling Harbour.

Walking along Sydney Harbour towards the Opera  House


When in Sydney, this place is a must visit of course. :)







Sydney Harbour Bridge. Again, the picture here really doesn't do it justice.




Sydney Central Station


I know, I know,  I went all the way to Australia to have ramen... XD XD. But this was really good.. Gantetsu ramen I think. The broth was so thick and flavourful; all ye pork lovers are gonna love this. :) :)


I loved walking around Darling Harbour. I don't know if it was the weather, the atmosphere or the fact that my mood was just the best it could possibly be but I remember really enjoying myself there.




Daddy being a real gentleman here. :D  :D


Queue some silly pics! :D











We took a ferry ride from the Sydney Harbour, didn't get off the ferry and just enjoyed the breeze and the sights.

Christmas in Sydney was wonderful; more so because I got to spend so much quality time with my family. It is usually difficult to get everyone to be in the same place at the same time now that we are living our own lives.

I suppose that is it for now. Till next time boy and girls. Cheers!!!

Sydney for Christmas (Post 1)

My apologies!!! I have neglected this space. My first semester lecturing has been an experience, to say the least. Fun fact: I am the only one in my immediate family that has never been to Australia...... UNTIL NOW!!!!! So, without further ado, let's begin.

We went to the Blue Mountains.  I'll start with The Three Sisters first. Most of you might already know that it is one of the main attractions around Blue Mountain. I am aware that the pictures here are probably not the best quality and I hope that  you don't mind. The pictures of here don't do this place justice so if you are thinking of visiting, I would highly recommend you to  do so. It's a pretty famous attraction so just be prepared for the number of people there.


Souvenir shop before reaching Echo Point




The Three Sisters


It's summer here in Sydney now so the weather was good. It was warm but very windy. I'd recommend your sunnies and sunscreen.:)




Poser little brother.. XD


The vastness, the picture doesn't do this place justice. It really was very very beautiful




And of course, some silly pictures..  :P
My lil' sis and lil' bro looks fine here.. I, on the other hand..hahaha

Next, we trekked to Katoomba Falls. I believe that there are several routes to the falls. If you're not sure of directions, all you have to do is ask around or follow people that are also heading towards to the falls. The air was definitely cooler here than at The Three Sisters and the walk towards the falls headed downwards into the valley.





The trek was not too long; we stopped and took pictures along the way so it took us longer than it should have  to get there. Otherwise, you can easily reach the falls in 20 minutes to half an hour. Some pictures of mummy and daddy first.







Sorry about the quality of the picture here. For some reason, I can't seem to find other images of the falls that I took while i was there. Sighs.





Us ladies at the falls. <3




Tired after trekking there..



Trekking back up was quicker but because we descended into the valley to the falls, trekking back  up  meant climbing a decent number of stairs. So, just be prepared for that :)

I think I will leave it here first for now. I'll be back soon with Part 2. ;).. Toodles!
