11 Sep 12 - Sydney

We woke up super early at 2.30am, went out to wait for bus at around 3.30 am. We had to catch the 6.10am domestic flight. We reached the bus stop before 4am. While waiting, 2 drunk guy came and waited for bus also. We gave up our seat to them. We waited for bus 702 to airport, the 4.15am bus as scheduled.

Reached airport round 5am and the airport was not opened. We waited in between the doors like the others. Too cold to be out in the open.

Reached Sydney, took a cab to Haven Inn Sydney hotel and it cost us around AUD 35. The reception guy was funny. He said that we were the "Singapore Team" and he would talked about where he went in Singapore. He said that taking "SCOOT" airline was cheap.

Think he had another cafe just opposite? He gave us the not sure how many percent discount card, told us to go to the "Naggy Cafe".

We took breakfast at "Naggy cafe" which cost 16 plus AUD for the big breakfast set shared with mum and my Mocha cost 3.50 AUD
After that, we went walking from Glebe to Chinese garden, sydney town hall, etc. Walked............Till mum complained...till all tired..
