This was, by far, the best trip we had compared to the previous ones (Tokyo, Singapore and Shanghai).
The things I love in Sydney and Australia as a whole:
1.) WEATHER - it wasn't too cold for the whole duration of the trip
2.) Demographics - half of the people are Asians, half white. I did hear a group of young filipinos conversing along George Street late at night.
3.) Food - you will love their beef, and seafood according to seafood lovers
4.) Friendly people - was able to converse with an Indonesian girl at Woolworths
5.) Wildlife - if you love animals, Australia's wildlife is 80% endemic, meaning 80% of their animals are unique to them and can never be found elsewhere. Cool fact.
6.) You gotta love their chocolates and cheese.
The tour was 5D-4N. I had so little time to squeeze in for shopping. Our free time was on a Sunday, stores open at 11am and closes at 5pm, and I had to visit a friend at lunch who lives 30 minutes away from the Central Station.
I returned to the central station at 3pm to meet my godmother who lives in Sydney. I was worried I didn't had enough time to catch up, i still have to buy Fort's Thomas and Friends.
Good thing my Ninang Sonia went me through Target and Queen Elizabeth mall. I was amazed she
didn't even look a bit tired from walking. I guess that's part of being an Australian.
My regrets are
- i shouldn't have brought so many clothes with me.
- i should have bought more of that Pie Face so i could have brought one at home.
Going to and from Sydney and Manila takes 8 hours, and I was happy to be riding Qantas. Their economy seats are spacious, i love their food and gotta love their personal TVs even more.
When I got home, my feet are aching, but my heart is full.
I will definitely would love to return to Australia.
