Australian Experience 6

We retired to bed early on the day we reached Sydney. I think we went to bed around 8pm and slept soundly through to the morning.

After having our breakfast, we set out to the city by taking train. The Carlingford train station is located about 20 minutes walk from Kevin's house. Our first stop was the Sydney Central Station.

After taking some photos around the Sydney Central Station, we rushed to Marigold Restaurant for dim sum with mum's cousin.






Shortly after that, we went to Paddy's Market, which is similar to Queen Victoria Market in Melbourne. We shopped for some souvenirs there. Yvonne bought a pink cardigan.

While on our way to Darling Harbour, we passed by Sydney's Chinatown.




Photos taken at Darling Harbour:

After the leisure walk at Darling Harbour, we walked over to Queen Victoria Building to take some photos.

Then, we walked to a place called Martin's Place. It is a pedestrian mall. Martin Place was opened in 1891 and was named in honour of Sir James Martin, the three time Premier of New South Wales and Chief Justice of Supreme Court of New South Wales. We took a rest there while the kids took their short nap.

We then went to Circular Quay. While there, we are able to take a closer look of the famous Opera House and Harbour Bridge. We were also able to view Sydney's city night skyline... It was not night after all. As it was winter when we were there, it was getting dark quite early.
