Day 1: Chinatown and Darling Harbour

We found a street named VALENTINE, and we had too much dimsum... 15 or 20 dishes between the two of us i think... and..... gramma's house...

yokers: eh. must take pix with my gramma's house leh... it's the prettiest on the whole street!!! right?? right???

xinds: yalayala. take la......

yokers: **beams!!


china town.. the official chinatown gates and lions.. and...... xiao fei yang huo guo!!! a few days later, we found that a brand on some packaged food with the same name; small fat goat steamboat!!


darling harbour. i don't know why but i insist on taking pictures with/of the flamingoes each ime i'm there. =) and guess what?? xinds spotted the blackbird restaurant.. and we spent 5min laughing over "orh jiao".


cutting up our oporto's chicken. yumyum!!!! did i mention i ate half a chicken by myself a couple weeks ago??? that chicken went straight down to my ass. =/

oh. and shiraz rose, jacobs creek. bad... bad.... does not go well with xinds and yokers!


Day 2: Paddington mark
my school, and the humongous hotdog from paddington's.. that was so good.... i made xinds walk miles to look for paddington's... =p


Circular Quay after the markets.... tooks heaps of photos.. =) xinds taking pix of the opera house and harbour bridge, and xinds holding up the bridge with her hand.. heh.


photog credits goes to both xinds and yokers. the sky was absolutely gorgeous!! the weather was beautiful!! i wish i could bring that all back to singapore with me!!!!!


our havaianas.. and xinds's excitement over the sign outside the pub...


us in the botanical gardens, where this artist was so fascincated by our antics he came over and wanted to draw us.. naturally, we refused. we're shy...... *burst into large laughter and farts and burps*

i told you we took heaps of pictures..... how could we not?? pretty girls, heavenly sky and new green leaves. Awesome!!!


the sepia and b&w look so old school.. plus the fact we were in stripes and dots!!! i seem to really like my stripes, and her, her dots... even our bikinis.. i was stripey and she, dotty.

Day 5: East Gardens

we were looking throught the pictures when we noticed what the sign at UNSW was saying.. hahahaa. how coincidental!! i swear we didn't plan it!!! peanut butter gelato, and the 4 course chinese dinner.. soup, roast chicken, combination beancurd hotpot, and fruits. nice and cheap!


Day 6: Fish Market
