Sydney : Candy... i love STICKY candy- Must eat & Must see!!!

What is this? It is not a toy, but a candy or to be more precise, the sticky fruit- orange candy from STICKY. It is hand-made and the best part is... we can even see how this candy is born ( i mean the hand-made candy-making process).


When i walked around the Rock, Sydney, i found this store which is full with bottles and colourful candies. Indeed very special. Really wish to bring all of them home. They are so CUTE. It is Sticky Fruit- Cherry ( with smiley face)

Sticky Word Rock- I Love You (Up) ; Sticky Fruit- Banana (Down)

Rainbow rock (Up) ; Raspberry rock ( Down)

Sticky Fruit - lemon (Up) ; Sticky Pillows- Raspberry/Lemonade (Down). This is only some of their candies. They have a variety of candies and some are with words such as ' Thank you' and you can even request to put your name or write anything on the candy for wedding and anything.

Another special feature of this shop is... Free Show. The Sticky Masters do their candy openly in his open kitchen and anyone is welcomed to see the 'show'.

oops... i was late for the show and i missed the earlier part. I only saw the girl wrap a orange-colour skin on the big roll. Then, she rolled and rolled and ...( X many many times)


Then, they pulled the roll and 'magic' happened. The big roll was pulled into smaller rolls and cut shorter as shown on the table.

Can you see that? This was how she pulled the candy roll. Amazing

He rolled & rolled the 'mini' candy rolls.

Then, something happened. All the audience also couldnt believe their eyes because he put a small spade to chop the candy rolls into smaller pieces. It was very hard to explain and you should see it yourself.


Happy time. They gave free sampling and all the audience were thrilled. The Sticky Fruit- Orange really tasted like orange and it was hot when we took it from the bowl. Yummy

Tips bowl made from candy. No wonder they got quite a good sum of tips.

Sydney Where to go - Sdyney Wildlife World

I really have to say this : Australians are very creative. I really like the design of the logo of Sydney Wildlife World. Can you see that? a kangaroo, a reptile, some dots and the aboriginal-feeling. It truly shows the identity of Australia Culture & wildlife.




We still not yet go in and explore the Wildlife World. No time & no money YET. Anyway, we managed to take a few pics with Ms Kangaroo.

What are you doing? Where do you put your hand??? OH My Goodness!!!

I thought I was in China instead of Australia

Where was i? I thought I was in China. I was surrounded by Chinese. They spoke Mandarin. They were very fashionable, wearing nice jackets and high boots. But, i can see lots of Mat Salleh too.

Welcome to the China Town of Sydney

Singapore BBQ Pork in China Town, Sydney

Chinese stuff with chinese name

Chinese Food Court ( even in Chinese name)- who would think that it was in Sydney?

Chinese noodle & rice- very big portion!!! AIUD 10

You can get any chinese food there

China Town, Chinese face

Have you tried Xinjiang before? Anyway, not really my cup of tea.

The weather was so good. It was a best time to have a walk around Sydney city especially Darling Harbour and Circular Quay.


Obviously everyone also shared the same thinking and Sydney was packed with HUMAN. Actually it is really a great leisure to walk in cool weather especially there is not sweating and not hot.

Gorgeous blue sky & small fountain

What a relaxing place..

Other than Sydney Aquarium, Sydney Wildlife World also located in Darling Harbour. We have not visited them because the tickets look like pretty expensive. Single entry to Wildlife world for adult is $34.99( about RM 105). But, Sydney Wildlife World really seem very interesting. It has 3 levels and exhibits more than 130 different species of Australian animals. wow..... Maybe next time.

Yummy...Yummy.. Vietnamese food in Parramatta, Australia

Australia is a multicultural country with a variety of food, such as Vietnamese, Lebanan, Korean, Chinese, Indian ....

My first dinner in Australia- Vietnamese Restaurant in Parramatta.

YumYum...

Vietnamese Beef Noodle - AUD 11. Very very big portion of noodle with lots of noodle, beef, delicious bean sprout and Basil ( My fauvourite!!!). This noodle is definitely too much for me. if continue to eat big portion of food like this, i am sure that my size will double up too. scary...

Fresh + Hot spring rolls - AUD 11. Thats all? See below...

It is not only a simple fried spring rolls. This spring rolls also served with a big cabbage, bean sprout and vegetables. Indeed a healthy food.

wow~~~ When we took a bite on the wrap spring roll, it was so juicy, refreshing and delicious!!!!

Pho Pasteur in Parramatta

ps: Two of us are such a small-eaters and we took away half of the spring rolls. We were charged extra AUD 0.50 for a plastic container. Should have prepare my own container... but would it seem very 'kiam siap'???

hELLo... SyDEY!!!

Sitting on Mrs Macquarie's Chair . It is a rock that cut into the shape of a bench. Mrs Macquarie was the wife of Major-General Lachlan Macquarie ( one of the Governor of New South Wales). Mrs Macquarie used to sit on the rock and watch for British ships sailing into the harbour.


Mrs Macquaries Point is a popular lookout position for the view to the north-west of the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge. I went there in the evening, hence, the quality of the pic is not good. should go to this place in the morning.




Day 1 { SYDNEY } Sunny { 15C }

OMG!!! Im in Sydney...not yet.. still in Gold Coast

This pic is taken by me. Not downloaded. Here, come the proof.

Tata. Standing in front of the Sydney Opera House. It looked sunny, but it was cold and windy that day. (ps: Please ignore my auntie's jacket)

My favorite -The Habour Bridge

Do you know that MAS is the only airlines that provides direct flight from Kuala Lumpur to Sydeny? Due to overwhelming response of this flight during mid of July, most of the airtickets were sold out and the only available are the expensive airtickets, which cost about RM5000 per ticket, it is not return ticket, only a ONE-WAY ticket.

Without choice, I had to look for alternatives flights to Sydney, and chose to fly to Gold Coast, then from there, fly to Sydney. Anyway, the tickets only cost me about RM1300. But, night flight is really tough and i couldnt sleep at all, sitting there from 10pm until the next day of 7am. So tiring.


Gold Coast Airport is rather ... simple and not gigantic as i thought it would. Only 1 straight corridor from front to end and that it is. shopping? it is only a small shopping area at the departure hall. food? only a few cafe and restaurants. i really cant believe it. Or i miss something there????



It was only 8.30am after i came out from the custom. My next flight was 1pm. OMG. I was too tired and no place to go, but to sit and try to take some sleep on that chair and at the same time, holding my luggages (total 3 of them).

My lunch - Hungry Jack for AUD 5. This dining area is awesome!!! sitting there, i can see the great view of mountains, planes and also......... handsome tall guys. haha

Staying in Gold Coast for only 6 hours, then i got on JetStar and flew to Sydney
