Sydney with BFF - Day 3, 4 and 5

 Day 3: 25 September 2014
Ok nak sambung cerita hari ketiga kat Sydney kan.... Ermmmm nak ingat balik hari ketiga buat pa tatau... Ermmmm... ahhhhhh... ishhhhh.... pi mana ek... tu la peram lagi lama2 kan.... sat nak browsing gambaq...  Ha... semalam tu kan dah pi Blue Mountain memang letih maximum la.. the whole day berjalan..  So hari ni decided bangun lambat sikit... ngeh ngeh ngeh... Hari ni we olls round city centre ja. Lepas siap2 breakfast kat hotel jalan kaki p Paddy Market. Hotel ni memang recommended la sebab dekat ngan semua benda within walking distance ja. Pitt St, George St, Darling Harbour, Paddy Market, Hyde Park semua ni within walking distance less than 15 minutes. Nak pi Circular Quay pun jalan ja tapi jauh sikit dalam 30 minit jalan kaki.

Sampai kat Paddy Market terus la buat activity perabih Australian dollar. Barang2 kat sini memang murah berbaloi baloi. Tshirt boleh dapat dalam A$5-8 selai. Jacket or sweater dalam A$10-15 selai. Fridge magnet A$2-3 satu. Soft or plush toys dalam A$4-5 satu. Kalau beli banyak lagi murah boleh nego kat sini. Normally depa akan jual mcm FM tu 3 for A$6 soft toys 3 for A$10 mcm tu. I olls pi time winter dah abis so kasut UGG memang tengah sale gila2 sampai 50%. So rembat la sepasang. Kat Pavillion mahai kut weyh. Normal price dalam A$198 sepasang. Abis borong antar barang kat hotel kami keluar balik jalan kaki p Circular Quay. Hari ni weather x best sgt sebab hujan. Lebih kurang setengah jam sampai la Circular Quay. Kat sini banyak cafe jugak mcm kat Darling Harbour tu. Kat circular Quay ni la lambang kemegahan Sydney Sydney Opera tu. Kat sini jugak ampa boleh nampak Sydney Harbour Bridge lagi clear. Kalau rasa nak buat activity bagi ketiak berpeluh pi la panjat bridge tu. Ampa boleh tgk Sydney view 360 degrees ha gitcheuw.

 

 

 

Selesai amik gambaq lepak sampai malam kami balik hotel and dinner kat bilik ja. Maggi sudah. Sep oiii sep....

Day 4: 26 September 2014
Memandangkan kengkawan I olls tak pernah merasa naik bus hop on hop off tu so hari ni we olls buy the ticket kat one of the stall yang we olls jumpa. Tgk map tu. kat mana we olls beli ticket. Tunggu bus tu pun just cross the street. We olls plan nak pi Bondi Beach hari ni. Weather hari ni pun memang best. Kalau tak dak angin tu lebih kurang mcm kat Genting ja kut tapi kalau mai angin tu perghhhh menusuk tulang sum2.  Sampai kat Bondi memang terkedu terkujat semua la weyh. Dia punya current wave memang best kalau nak surfing. Tapi aku rasa omputih ni memang gila. Sejuk2 gedi mcm tu pun depa boleh mandi ngan surfing. I olls tahap pakai winter boot la mai pantai. Sejuk sampai beringuih weyh. Hidung rasa mcm nak patah ja. Muka tangan kebaih mcm kena tampaq. Tapi dressing we olls maut fefeeling Australian sangat. Cuma jakun mcm aku ja boleh pakai winter boots p beach. Kah kah kah... Lepak and rela kat sini. Minum kopi bagai... Amik bus pi balik city centre. Tukaq bus route kami p Mrs Macquarie's Chair.

Mrs MacQuaries's Chair is one of my "must-see" locations for anyone visiting Sydney - you just can't get a better view. Stop paling dekat nak kesini is Sydney Royal Botanic Garden. One word Subhanallah.... That described everything dah kan....  Layan kan aje lah gambaq kat bawah ni.

 

 

 

Masa balik we olls buat tour in the bus.... Just pusing2 tak stop mana2 layan city centre dalam bus. Sampai kat Darling Harbour we olls turun and had our coffee kat Starbucks. Lepas tu jalan kaki back to the hotel. On our way back we olls singgah Mamak another halal restaurant yang served Malaysian food. Makan kat sini is much more better than that day. Mamak dengan hotel lebih kurang 5 minit ja jalan kaki.


Last Day : 27 September 2014
Verangan sangat semua tenaga mcm harimau so masa booked ticket amik flight malam. Dah la check out awai pukul 10. Haaaaa jenuh la... Nasib boleh leave luggage for free kat hotel. Lepas breakfast we olls round shopping area George Street and Pitt Street. Layan apa patut balik singgah Paddy Market buat last shopping. Lepaih tu semua dah patah kaki x larat semput semua dah. We olls decided to relax ja. And sekali lagi we olls pi lepak Hyde Park. Baring2 guling2 gelak2 sampai pukul 5.

 

Kali ni balik we olls dah buat arrangement dengan hotel amik shuttle pick up service from the hotel to airport. Tambang dia A$15 per person per way. Sampai kat airport smoking sat kat designated area. For smokers out there lepas check in dah tak dak smoking area kat dalam. So sampai2 tu pi la ampa buat apa patut. Lagi satu trolley luggage kat sini kena bayaq sebijik A$4... Sila kali 2.96...Nangehhhh.... sebab nak sep I olls tak amek... Dah la bag dah berat mcm gajah... At this time baru teringat lakik kat umah... bahhahahaahhaha.... Kalau dia ada mesti dia jadi abang sado tolong angkat bag I olls.

So i guess that the end of my story. Byeeeeee..... See u olls again in my next destiny....

OK conclusionnya budget trip kali ni:
Hotel and flight : RM1920
Duit belanja : A$800

Day 1: 23 September 2014
OK sesampai kat Sydney airport ampa kena facing macam2 sebelum keluaq. Masa dalam flight - form yang depa bagi tu make sure ampa isi betui2 kalau x sure dengan apa yang dibawak tick ja yes. First keluar ada counter check passport and visa lepaih tu pi collect luggage.Lepaih tu ada a few lane bagi yang tak dak barang larangan boleh keluaq teruih kalau ada mcm kami kena pi satu lagi lane. Ok bagi smoker tegar  diingatkan seorang boleh bawak 40 batang rokok ja. 40 batang ok bukan 40 kotak... INGAT!!!! Alhamdulillah kami tak kena saman apa pun and dilepaskan cuma diberi reminder next time jangan bawak rokok banyak2 and makanan yang x boleh bawak. Ampa google la senirik k... Keluaq situ kami kena beratuq lagi 5 orang satu line dalam 4 line... Make sure ampa letak semua luggage and handbag kat bawah and ada sekoq anjing comel akan mai hidu2 beg ampa.. Kalau anjing tu hidu paih tu blah selamat la kiranya....

Sydney International Airport ni x besaq mana so risk nak sesat memang payah. Tengok ja signage and we olls pi cari train nak ke city centre. Tambang train ke Sydney Central A$16.40 per person per way. Train lebih kurang 15 minutes ja. Sampai kat Sydney Central we olls jalan kaki ja pi Travelodge Hotel yang  tak sampai 10 minit dah sampai. Memandangkan still awai kami tinggal luggage dulu (free) kat hotel and keluaq meronda.  OK time check in kat Australia ialah pukul 3 petang and check out dia 10 pagi. Sila take note hokay.

 

 

Since x boleh nak check in lagi kami p breakfast kat one of the cafe depan Hyde Park. Memandangkan semua jetlag teruk x cukup tido kami just lepak kat Hyde Park fefeeling Australian sampai time check in. Lepas check in kami nap kejap lepas tu bangun siap2 kuaq jalan kaki p Darling Harbour. Jalan lebih kurang 15-20 minit ja dah sampai sini. Memang ramai manusia la. View malam kat sini Subhanallah memang awesome. Kat sini la ada Hard Rock Cafe. We had our dinner there and lepak Starbucks. OK Sydney is a very safe country. Kami 3 orang perempuan lepak jalan2 sampai malam2 pun still rasa selamat.

 

 

 

 

 

Day 2: 24 September 2014
Weather hari ni memang awesome. We olls dah booked in advanced with the hotel reception last night nak pi ke Blue Mountain. We olls amik package via Grayline at A$194 per person all inclusive package.. Pick up from the hotel tapi not in Travelodge. Alhamdulillah Vibe Hotel tempat pick up tu sebelah hotel we olls ja. Seawal 07:30 we olls dah terpacak depan Vibe Hotel. Bila bus sampai they will asked about the payment kalau x bayar lagi or confirmation /booking number. The bus was great dah la bus baru, siap ada free wifi lagi dalam bus. The journey took us about an hour. The first stop is Leura City. Bandar kecik nak ke Blue Mountain la. Ok personally aku rasa country side kat mana2 negara omputih ni memang la sempoi. Cantik dan bersih. We stop there just for 20 minutes before proceed our way to the Blue Mountain. OK kalau nak tau apa yang inclusive in the package tengok kat sini GrayLine Blue Mountain Package.

 

 Sesampai kat sini we olls kena naik Scenic Cableway nak ke centre part dia where the cafe and the gift shop located at.. MashaAllah... Subhanallah... memang such a splendid view la ampa boleh tengok sepanjang 5 minit ataih cableway ni. Boleh tengok Wenworth Falls. Memang cantik gila waterfall dia weyh. Gayat pun boleh tahan jugak la. Disebabkan cuti sekolah maka memang queue agak panjang. We olls decided to ride the steepest 52 degrees incline railway in the world that is Scenic Railway. Turun bawah pusing2 layan view Blue Mountain and dari sini dah nampak Three Sisters Rock. We olls naik atas balik guna Scenic Skyway. Memandangkan masa yang diaorang bagi agak limited we olls rushed up to had our lunch dengan coupon yang dia dah bagi in advance. Not to worry makan kat sini ada halal food ok.

 

 Naik bus balik we olls proceed our tour to Echo Point. From here ampa boleh tengok Three Sisters Rock dengan jarak lagi dekat. View kat sini pun tak payah cerita la memang best lah. After half an hour kat sini naik bus balik p ke Featherdale Wildlife Park. Ha kat sini I olls jadi jakun perak buih semua sebab jumpa Koala. Siap boleh pegang sambil amik gambaq. Kangaroo kat sini memang jual mahal la sebab mewah sangat makanan. Kalau nak feed the kangaroo boleh beli dengan harga A$1 sebekaih. Binatang yang paling best aku tengok kat sini wombart... Sumpah cute gila.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 The tour had come to the end. We olls pass Homebush Bay the 2000 Olympic Game site before transferred to the jetty to cross over Parramatta River going back to Sydney. Captain Cook Cruise ni memang dah inclusive in the package. Ada dua stop - satu  kat Circular Quay and lagi satu kat Darling Harbour. Hotel kan lagi dekat dengan Darling Harbour so we olls stop kat Darling Harbour and make our own way back to the hotel. Malam ni we olls dinner kat one of the Halal Restaurant kat area China Town. Lupa nama tapi memang x sedap. Perut Malaysian tak boleh buat apa kena cari nasik jugak kan. 

 OK la sambung lagi nanti na untuk Day 3, 4 and 5

Family Getaway - Krabi

My trip to Krabi is consider as my family get together since hari biasa mmg semua busy dgn hal memasing. I think there is a lot of entry pasal Krabi in other people blog. So this time around I make it short and simple.


We went there during labour day public holiday for 3 days 2 night ~ driving.... di ulang driving.... Ha tudia... The journey took us approximately 5hours++ (2 stops)


We depart at 6 am in the morning from Alor Setar.  After passing through the immigration we directly continued our journey to Krabi towards Patthalung.


Day 1: On the way to Krabi

Depart at 6am from home
Reach Krabi approximately 12pm (sangkut kat Danok sbb rakyat Malaysia ramai gila)
R&R which got one petrol pump and one Amazon Café

Sampai kat Krabi terus pi check in Aonang Villa Resort... Went for lunch at Lemon Restaurant (halal). We continue our family bonding time at pool and leisure walk at  Aonang Beach area. We had our dinner at one of Arab Restaurant called Cleopatra which I don't fancy much. Service very bad so as their food.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Day 2: 4 Island Hoppings

We chartered a private long tail boat for our families. Harga dia if not mistaken RM400. Unfortunately private boat only available at 3pm punya tour. So day time tu kita org layan Krabi town ngan Aonang Beach St. Lunch at Hasna Palace. Sini makan sumpah sedap....

 
Malam layan town Aonang Beach St buat last shopping, massage, last day for banana pancake and all. Dinner still kat Hasna Palace.

Day 3: Back to home sweet home

On our back home we stop at Krabi Premium Outlet Village which is located on the main road. Often if you travelled from the airport to Aonang, the outlet can be visibly seen on the right hand side. The outlet has a few sections and fully air conditioned. It was like a very hot day and the next thing we want was air-cond. Dekat sini ada mcm2"Branded" mcm Adidas, Nike, Lacoste, Ripcurl, Paul Frank  & macam-macamlah kalau nak senaraikan tu banyak... Tapi yang paling best dekat sini boleh dikatakan setiap hari ade saleup to 70%, I olls tak tipu memang ade banyak sale... Ingat nak capai gak satu dua, tapiii sayang dekat duit plak sebab dah banyak beli mase kat "Ao Nang" hari tu... So hanya cuci mate je lah...

After two hours there kita otg pun balik la umah manis umah... See u again Krabi...
