As part of my self-proclaimed graduation trip after getting my Masters, we went on a short trip to Sydney as Scoot was having some sales for their launch promotion!

Day 1
It was almost night time when we reached Sydney. We stayed in this hotel Travelodge Wynyard which was having a promotion. 

W told me that he needs to meet his cousin at Darling Harbour to pass her something.

 As wines were pretty affordable in Australia, we ordered two glasses but I really did not like the taste of alcohol.

 Along Darling Harbour.

 Little did I know that it was an excuse to go to the Darling Harbour as he gave me a surprise! To ask me officially to be his girlfriend.

Day 2

We joined a free walking tour as I enjoyed almost all the free walking tours in Europe! If you followed my blog, you would realised that I would join the free walking tours if the city has one! They were very informative and they do not force you to buy any souvenirs.
At the end of the trip, you can give them any tips you deem suitable. I thought it was a good way to support the local students (as most of them are students) and encourages entrepreneurship. 

 We started our tour at 10.30am at Town Hall Square and there were quite a few Singaporeans on this tour as well.

 

After the tour, we went to eat some snacks from the local market.

 In the evening, W brought me to Max Brenner Chocolate Bar near our hotel as he kept raving how good the chocolates are! Indeed, I enjoyed it!

Day 3

Day 3 was spent walking around Paddington Market and we randomly walked into this breakfast cafe (unfortunately we could not remember the name) where we had one of the best western breakfast ever in our lives! Not kidding!

We did not take many photos as it was rainy and cold.

Day 4

W brought me to this breakfast place, Pancakes On The Rocks as according to him and his cousin who studies in Sydney, it is highly raved.

 Pancakes is their specialty, as you might have guessed from the name. We went to the main branch on the rocks, but I still prefer the breakfast yesterday.

 The weather was perfect!

Our pork knuckle dinner which was too huge for one!

Day 5

We went to the Sydney Fish Market.

 The food was pretty good though not fantastic. Perhaps I should order grilled rather than deep fried. We had the best frozen yogurt though!

Goodbye Sydney. You have one of the best sushi ever!
