Today I had a leisurely morning then headed to the next suburb 'Wooloomooloo'. There wasn't really much there but I was mainly going there to try out a pie at 'Harry's Cafe de Wheels', which is an iconic pie cart, very famous landmark in Sydney! I had the Tiger special which was a steak pie, smothered in mash, then smothered in mushy pies and a hole in the top for gravy! It was delish, haven't had a pie that good in ages! After my pie attack I headed over to Dar...

Now I awoke today with a smile on my face as it was beaming sunshine outside (hasn't happened much whilst being in Oz and NZ) so I thought I would be a proper tourist today and go everywhere! And that I did! First I headed to the Royal Botanic Gardens. Much more impressive than others I've seen and a really good atmosphere, literally a little bit of sun brings people out in droves!

The best part of today was going to see the saturday night Darling Harbour fireworks. Darling Harbou...

We walked out to Market...

Today did not start off well. For starters, I slept through my alarm which resulted in me waking up at 7:30am in a state of panic (my flight was at 9am). I chucked my clothes on, said my goodbyes and ran (ish) to the nearest bus stop. The shuttle came pretty quick but it still took 40 minutes to get to the airport. Unfortunately, due to my stupidity I got off the bus at the Domestic Airport and not the International. I waited for 10 minutes for the free shuttle, ...
