Christmas 2011

How was Christmas for everyone? Mine was spent with my family in Sydney which has been great over the last week or so. Been doing many activities, while also going to work over the Christmas period.
Some of the things I've done so far:

- Visited the Sydney aquarium for the first time, which was great as there were lots of things to see and got some great photos! The highlight of the day was seeing the amazing lego creations and the dugoong =).
- Went to Hunter Valley for wine tasting, not as fun, as I am not much of a wine fan, although I tasted this really nice white wine, which was really sweet. Highlight would have to be taking some really cool photos of this giant wine bottle which was 5 x the human size! haha. Also enjoyed going on the kids playground and going on the firefox..haha!!
- Took my family to the fishmarket, which has amazing sashimi..hmm so tasty! Definitely can't beat it!
- Exploring Harbour bridge and opera house at night - enjoyed the scenery and the late night stroll around Circular Quay =)
- Enjoyed the 3 hour showboat ride which contained a 3 meal course, some magic tricks and a performance by talented cabaret dancers.

Next on my To-Do List:
- take my parents to enjoy mouth watering dumplings at Din Tai Fung,
- Go to Wildlife with my Nephew
- pay a visit to Paddy's Market
- Visit the beaches of Sydney

I'm sure more things will pop up later, but for now, those are the things I want to cross off my list =), will be using my weekends to explore various parts of Sydney when my parent's leave Sydney. =)

Hope everyone's had a wonderful Christmas and are looking forward to the New Year~!
