today gotto be my favourite day in winter tis year. the sky is clear blue, the sun is bright and sunny and the weather is nice and warm but not scorching hot and most importantly not humid. its almost like spring without the ah-choos (caused by pollen from blooming flowers). in fact, it felt like late spring. it feels wonderful to be out on such a fantastic weather. other half and i even ditched our jumpers (sometimes), wearing jus our short-sleeved tees.

our day went in the following sequence:

1. lunch at harry's cafe de wheels in chinatown

walked past central train station to get to harry's.


sydney has a capitol building too.

tis hotdog stand first became famous at woolloomooloo. they sell pies as well but other half and i had hotdogs.






view from where we were sitting while enjoying our lunch.


2. paddy's market for macadamia nuts, sunflower seeds and dried apple rings. i'm your snacker here.

3. darling habour + cockle bay + harbourside shopping centre.

row of flowers lining a section of the sydney convention centre.


even the seagulls were having a splash in such wonderful weather.




in conjunction with 'national tree day' tomorrow.







opposite tis row of boats was the stretch of restaurants and bars aka cockle bay wharf (see next pic).





on pyrmont bridge overlooking IMAX. compare tis pic with tis.


4. sydney fish market

some pics taken on our way from darling harbour to fish market.

carpark to sydney fish market.


used to eat tis... pacific oysters from tassie.


but we had tis today. pacific oysters from south australia. it looked so much fresher than the tassie ones.


christis's oysters, where we bought our oysters. i suppose they only sell oysters. not sure abt other seafood cos we only buy oysters from them. the rest like lobsters and stuffs are bought from other shops. normally from peter's.


found a spot and sat there enjoying what seem like an aphrodisiacal dose. :P


one of the many seagulls, preying on our oysters, caught on camera.


5. broadway shopping centre

after fish market, we followed a road map (we wanted to try a different route today) and walked to broadway shopping centre to the kmart to buy some stuff for my brother (the one going shanghai).

tis is the second overhead bridge i've ever seen in australia so far. btw, the first one was fenced up too.


saw tis buidling which by my standards i wont live in BUT tis one gave me the nice feeling abt it. i dont know how to explain.


finally saw the sign we i wanted to see. we're there at last. its not that far from fish market but i'm too tired from my backaches. blame pms!



for the record, all the above were done on foot. its amazing how much i can walk today, since i was having cramps and backaches. u can see me stretching my back like an old lady whenever we come to a traffic light. i think other half should now stop playing his ps2 and give me a foot massage. hehehe!

ps: oops i've done it again! i said i wont speak anymore or post pics of darling harbour but i jus did it!
