So, this was the Y Hotel we stayed in. Fantastic Location, right smack in the CBD! Thank God we need not sleep in the dormitory rooms as they still had standard rooms available..
our budget hotel, without attached toilet..haha. The room is actually quite small. Something like First World in Genting but cleaner
super compact, got fridge, TV, safe and ironing board in the cupboard.
We got to Sydney really early in the morning. Left our bags in the hotel and started heading for breakfast at Bill Granger's restaurant
The roads in Sydney are pretty hilly.. can't imagine wearing heels walking up and down
It was a pretty pleasant walk, a start of the weekend, happy Saturday morning, cooling weather and the roads were pretty quiet and empty. There were a lot of joggers and cyclists doing their early exercise, while some were sleeping from their Friday late nights..
Finally found Bill Granger's restaurant
part of his menu, just simple food
His ever famous fluffy omelette. we've walked so far.. better be good..and yes, it was indeed fluffy..
a nice cup of latte
the eggplant was placed in the middle of his dining table. And somehow it looked so pretty! so simple, yet ada style juga!
his books
and DAMN! It's one expensive breakfast!!!! can't believe we both spent AUD 50.60!! luckily it lasted me till dinner..
and then we continued to walk walk, headed towards the Paddington Markets on Oxford St.
some houses in the city..
hmmm.. funny that the tree is up there
At Paddington Markets.. some nice embroidery
funky lap sap top
funky glasses
I so want this pair!
these shoes AUD 200 +! crazy right? Thinking about the conversion makes me sick!
love the colours
make up model .. sexy!
fake bling bling
I find people here in Australia are so much more creative .. so many good arts and creative designs that you can find here.. simple things which looks really good. Even their advertising ideas are just super Fresh and spot on messages.
art painted on the wall.. this was at a cafe that sells 2nd hand books.
baby shoes... Australian Made.. everything also Australian made, but Australian price..haha.. only things that are Made in China is affordable.

bill granger's most raved and famous scramble eggs did lived up to its name. it melts in your mouth and it was worth the hilly walk and the back & forth wrong directions. the walk to paddington was long as we went on wrong directions as well. google maps wasn't too great at this point. i can't believe we walked the entire strip of paddington shopping. well done to us!!
the paddington market is absolutely a must when in sydney!! it's 2 weeks since day 1 in sydney and my legs are still recovering!! hahaha what a day it was =)
oh yes! the walk was fabulous. till today I think I did lose some weight from all that walking..hahaha.. thanks for the further elaboration.. more pictures to comeee.. there's just too many!!! i miss Sydney!!!!!
