Sydney - Day Two

Weather : Sunny (but can be a bit windy at times)
Temperature : 24 degrees.

Hubby shot off to the car rental service at about 7 am to take the car that we have booked yesterday. It turned out to be a brand new Toyota Camry. Superb!

Today, our mission is to visit Featherdale Wildlife Park and the famous Blue Mountain.

We arrived at Featherdale at around 11 am selepas sesat barat. We took the wrong turn, entered the wrong highway and had trouble getting back to the right route. Nasib baik both kids are fast asleep so Ibu and Ayah got to look for the way in peace.

At 11 am, most of the shows or feeding times have passed. But that doesn't stop us from having fun. The boys had a close encounters with the Australian native animals. Ashraff got to feed and pat the kangaroo...and both boys got to pat the koala. Aliff siap tarik lagi bulu koala tu...









Then we continued our journey to Echo Point, Blue Mountain where we viewed the famous rocks called the Three Sisters. Why these rocks are called Three Sisters? Panjang ceritanya...Can google if you want to find out more..hehehe...


Do you see the three big rocks behind? Those are called "The Three Sisters".


Then we took the skyway to view the scenic Blue Mountain Range, with the lovely Katoomba Falls.

Shoes need to be cleaned before entering the Skyway.


On the way back we stopped at Auburn St for our dinner. It turned our the sepanjang-panjang street tu ada halal foods. Best betul! This is one thing good about Australia. You can get a great deal of halal foods here (of course not as many as in the UK).

Ashraff by that time has developed a runny nose with quite a severe cough. His lips are dry and started to crack and bleed. He refused to wear lip balm. Lekit kata dia. He hates the sweater/jacket as well. Everytime nak pakaikan, mesti nak nangis. I guess handling him throughout the holiday is so challenging. Memang testing our patience betul!

Oh, and that lil lad also kept on asking for his Iced Milo everytime we dined-in. OZ does not serve Milo. Kesian sangat tengok dia. Dia macam homesick coz he kept on saying nak balik rumah Tokmak. But of course, everytime we stopped at any place of interest, he's the most jovial boy around town. Tak ingat apa dah...
