Love Sydney

Hello blog visitors :)
We are back again, but this time we have Emma by our side. For two weeks she will join our adventure and take part in the daily day action. :) As Emme (our visiting gueststar) mentioned in the last post we are now in Sydney and have been for the last 4 days. And it's been amayzing :) So much we have managed to do and this day has not even started yet. Emma mentioned a lot of our activities the last couple of days so I will start by introdusing Sydney for u guys and then inlighten u in our daily activities. :) Sydney with it's 4.5 million inhabbitant's is the largest and most popular city in Australia, but not the capital for u that did'nt know that. What is the capital?? 5 bucks to the one that get's it. :) Sydney is know for commerce, arts, fashion, culture, entertainment, music, education and tourism.
With the Opera house as it's icon and the beutiful Sydney harbour as the tourism mekka. Syney as all other big city's in the world is devided by inner cities. Like Kings cross (Rodberget back in Helsinki), St. James (Toolo), Circular Quay (Manhatten in New York) and so on. Anyway our hostel/hostel's are located between Kings Cross and Potts Points. It's the red dott on the map to the right. Kings cross is commonly known as the red light districthere in Sydney. Party place with all u need, like several strip clubs, homeless people and all that.
But I mean we like it, supermarket, laundry, internet cafe next door, its close to a metro station and it's perfected located if u want to have a walk or a run. The Royal Botanic Garden just 15 min away with it's amayzing view point over Syney harbour and the opera house. Also it's not far away from the city, bondi beach or the airport. So it's perfect for us. :)Did we mention that it's the red light district?? hehe u know what that means don't u....

The last 2 days the weather as been awesome so we have been chilling on the beach, first day we spent at bondi beach and then yesterday on manly beach.
Chill days just trying to get the tan to come back again. :) And it has allready, even our white finnish friend got some collor. hehehe Bad thing about manly beach for us was the fact that it was sunday so everyone had the day of and wanted to go to the beach so it was really crouded and we spent about 1 and a half hour getting there. And a lot more on the way back since the girls wanted to do some shopping. :( hehe On the way back to the hostel's we stopped by our local pizza place for some italian pizza. Great pizza and with excellent service. The guy joked around, sat down besides us when we ordered and so on. We even got to draw on our table with collor pens and all. Hehehe nice place :)

Today the girls went shopping so I got the time to hit the gym and update myself on the car rental agreement and where to get our space vagon. :) Soon we will hit the road up to Aaron and Hendrica's place in Melbourne for some water-skiing. Loking foreward to that. :) But yeah this is it for this time, we still have about 3 more days in Sydney so we will visit the imax theater, maby do the Sydney harbour bridge climb and just enjoy the city on it's best.

So take care guys & girls. We will see u again and thanx for reading our blog :)
Cheers

  1. I'm so happy you made it to Sydney! It sounds really nice there. Have you had any big Australian burgers or steaks yet? I'm jealous of that.

    I wish Cara and I could meet you but we are heading in the opposite direction, back to Thailand. We'll just have to come and visit you in Norway or Finland some other time :)

    Have fun, don't spend all your time in the red light district ;-)
