Sydney Scrap Book: Day Five

24 October 2012

Has it been 5 days already since I got here? Wow! Talk about how time flies.. today I succumb to the hands of lazyness... I stayed in bed until 10am. I wrote my day 4 blog for like 2 hours (having breakfast in between paragraphs)... Haven't eaten anything for lunch yet, I headed to Birkenhead Point to shop at the outlet stores. I decided to just have my late lunch there.

Sending postcards to friends

Again I missed the right bus stop. I alight at the wrong street... You know, Sometimes google maps lie. Good thing I was in my tsinelas so my feet is in chillax more.. but not my legs and muscles since its a uphill downhill road to Birkenhead Point. Finally reached my destination. I saw some cafes and resto but I was immediately blinded when I saw a cotton on shop that has SALE sign at the display area. My hunger lost, feeling like Becky Bloomwood, I rushed to the 50% off section. I am one happy shopper even if I used my plastic card with a black strip at the back... Charged $60AUD for 10 clothes! I think its a great buy :)

The Birkenhead Outlet Store, seems already deserted at 5:30pm because its already closing time.

With my happy disposition, I head to Queen Victoria Building. Read in the Sydney Tourist Guide that it is the best mall in the state...so I need to take souvenir pictures of this iconic landmark. And indeed its exquisite. I call it a 'Mall fit for a Queen'.... With Carpeted floors, high end shops, there are 2 large clocks hanging from a clear glass roof, stain glass on the windows... And free WiFi :) it was like entering a palace with shops.

Took advantage of the free WiFi, like a true free loader that I am, I tweeted checked in and posted photos of this ahhhmazing mall. Oh btw, I haven't had Lunch and my stomach is crumbling.. so I guess its time to head home and eat those left over pizza in the fridge. When I got home, Hubby bought some take out from the Sushi Bar. Yehey!

Mangoes are rarely available in Sydney, so they use guacamole instead of Mangoes
