Trip to Sydney (Week 2)


25/4/2011 - Day 8
A drizzly day. In the morning, we took the kids to a park where they fed the ducks. Simple activity like this can make their day and I am happy with their new experience.
In the afternoon, Nana took me (Yup! Me alone) to Parramatta Shopping Centre, leaving the kids and Daddy at home while grandpa visited his sister. I spent and spend I did. More clothes for everyone, books, toys and easter egg chocs. Purchasing power here is quite high. You can get wearable clothes for the price as low as AUD10/pc. A large Mocha at Gloria Jeans only cost less than AUD6.

26/4/2011 - Day 9
Another drizzly day. We had to change our plan from going to the city to Westfield Shopping Centre. Although Parramatta looks more exclusive than Westfield, its prices are more affordable than Westfield's. No wonder there are more shoppers at Parramatta. Didn't buy much but it wasn't all lost and no gain. Jerilyn saw Ben 10 mascot today. She heard of Ben 10 but never a fan. All of a sudden, she is a fan of Ben 10. Haha...

27/4/2011 - Day 10
When we left the apartment, it was already drizzling. However, by hook or by crook, we had to compete our itinerary. We took a train down to the city to the Aquarium and Wildlife. From outside, they were nothing to desire about but once you are in, you get some pretty surprises. Here are some photos:



28/4/2011 - Final Day
Being the final day, we relaxed at home and did some final shopping. I don't know how cheap are vitamins in Australia but Dad bought kilos of them. My luggage was packed with chocolates (>10kg) and cosmetics. Overall, our luggage was more than 90kg.
