Sydney

Roadtrip! Me, Rodzman & Frank -driving from Gold Coast to Sydney at 10 hours to be exact. I drove during dawn till the sun comes up. It was a spectacular sight to see the color changes in the sky while driving along the hills and greens. A surreal feeling -I can't believe I drove to Sydney!! Then later Frank took over when we were getting closer to Sydney but something happen to the car while on the way (No, we weren't in an accident, thank gawd). Somehow the car was making funny big chunky sounds while Frank was driving and we couldn't identify it when we stopped so we went straight to the workshop. Later, we head over to Kelvin's place (Frank's good friends house) to lodge. We freshen up and continued our adventure to the city. We had late lunch at this BBQ Korean Restaurant which serves delicious raw crab with chili paste sauce -yummy!! Later we took away some desserts at this colorful pastry shop called the 85.C. The taste -sensational! Then we walked around to see buildings and famous landmarks. The city is huge and reminded me of London and Hong Kong -busy city, with so many people and traffic. Later we head back to rest our eyes for the night -curious of Sydney night life and I heard pancakes..?? Yes, we had pancakes for dinner with more of Frank's friends -Valentino and Daniel. The next morning, we head to the Fish Market. It was indescribable -so many people, birds and pelicans and cheap and delicious seafood! I really enjoyed it. Then we went to Sydney Opera -the place that I admire most of Sydney. It was really exciting and I got really anxious as I arrived. It was huge and the view was magnificent! Overall I enjoyed myself in Sydney and thanks Frank for being our tour guide =)
