Sydney Here We Come

Once we stopped off in Sidney we felt a different atmosphere. Sidney was not as hectic as Melbourne City. Probably because Sidney is a big metropolis where all activities are more scattered. We stayed at the Malaysia Hall of Sidney. Sidney has very efficient public transport especially busses, train and ferries. Public transport was also more user-friendly where with only $17 daily pass card you could travel on busses, ferries and train as frequent as you wished and you could go to any places which were covered by that transports.

We didn’t notice that we were in the same flight with millionaire Mr. Richard Benson till our flight touched down on Sydney airport. This photo is bit blur cause it was taken in rushed.


On our first day in Sidney of course we went to the-place-must-go – Opera House and Harbour Bridge. We took photos from every angle as we would not have any chance to come here again. We spent most of our first and second day on ferries by stopping at almost every wharf. On the third day we bought daily pass card excluding ferry and train services because we had really had enough with ferries.

Some of the Australian aborigines performed their traditional music.

That day we went to Paddy’s Market to buy some souvenirs after learning about this place from one of Malaysian friend . Paddy’s Market is the place where you can buy souvenirs for really good prices. Almost all the sellers were Chinese. When we saw the prices we were so frustrated because we had bought some souvenirs in Melbourne where the prices were much higher compare to this market. That's because we did not know about this place before. After that we went to Bondi Beach and spent couple of hours at the beach.
