Sydney 2012 Day 1 Part 1

3 days after my finals is the start of my 8 days graduation trip to Sydney and Melbourne... After a crazy night of house moving... my friend, Shan and I headed to the Brisbane domestic airport at 3am... 
Nothing is open and there is no one at the airport... 

Got so bored I took a picture of our luggages... the smaller one is mine =D 


A picture of Shan and me!


A blur picture of the airplane we are going to take...


While waiting for the plane...


This is the first time I took virgin airline... Was really pleased with the service, although its a budget airline, there were screens on the back of the seats where we can enjoy foxtel channels. Watched Shaun the sheep the whole 2 hours flight...

And best of all, I get to watch the sunrise from an airplane!!! Pretty max!




Another picture of the airplane we took... Taken after reaching Sydney...


It was around 7am when we reached Sydney... we had to wait another 4 hours for another friend who is flying in from Singapore to join us... so we took the airport link train to the international terminal...


Breakfast at the international terminal... red rooster... half a roast chicken...


The roasted vegetable tasted kind of weird and I hate peas!!! It somehow reminds me of airplane food haha...


After my friend arrived, we took the taxi to our hotel, Travelodge Wynyard Hotel... It is located very near to the Wynyard Station... though the rooms were abit old, it was still quite worth it for the price we paid...




After checking in, we took a cab down to darling harbour to this place called hurricane grill for pork ribs... highly recommended!!!


Baked butter mushrooms...


The damn nice pork ribs!!! 3 of us shared one whole rack of pork ribs which is filling enough for us...


The crowd at the restaurant... even though it was past lunch time...


We were seated outdoor and therefore had a great view of darling harbour... 



Here are the details for the restaurant:
Phone: 02 9211 2210 (must make reservations as its always full)

Be prepared to pay at least AUD 20 per pax.... its worth it as the food is delicious!!!

Thats all for this post folks...
