<p>This is yet another bucket list check-off, flying first class suite on board super jumbo jet A380 aircraft. You bet, I am certainly excited about this long-awaited anticipated trip.</p>



<p>I have heard much and read about it, but nothing beats a personal experience, so here I am now. </p>



<p>Why Sydney? Main reason being, there isn&#8217;t much super jumbo jet A380 aircraft flies to for medium haul as the majority of it is used for long haul flight. In addition, my last trip to Australia was more than 15 years ago, and this would definitely be a good time to fulfil 2 tasks at one go. Back then, all my memories were on photo film, so this time round, my memories can now be digitalized. ð</p>



<p>As usual, excitement can only be &#8220;real&#8221; after stepping through the departure hall. ð</p>

<p>Wow, you will arrive in style and check in at Terminal 3 First Class Departure Hall, and there will be a dedicated immigration clearance gate that will lead you directly to the SilverKris first class lounge.</p>

<p>For Suite Class Passenger, you will be invited and ushered to The Private Room to enjoy the lounge facility. </p>

<p>All the hot foods are freshly prepared upon placing order. Thus, it is advisable to arrive way in advance so that you have sufficient time to enjoy your meals. I have tried to savour most of the items in the menu, if not all, to the best of my ability. ð</p>



<p>The foods are deliciously prepared and of standard without a doubt. ð</p>

<p>Freshen up with a good shower prior to boarding. The shower room is really huge and roomy. </p>

<p>I love the spacious Suite cabin. This is definitely luxurious. Hope I will not be spoilt with such a luxurious treatment. ð</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://suanmeizai.blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/20230708_154802-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-15594"/></figure>

<p>If you would like to convert both suites into one and have a double bed option, remember to book seats 1A and 2A or 1F and 2F as not all suites can be converted. ð</p>

<p>It is really convenient and economical to travel via train to city than using private transport which is way more expensive. </p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://suanmeizai.blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/20230702_114340-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-15364"/></figure>

<p>I will be staying over at YEHS Hotel Sydney Harbour Suites for the next 6 nights.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://suanmeizai.blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/photocollage_202372154147960-1024x1024.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-15368"/></figure>



<p>Thanks to Booking.com, they have given me an upgrade to the Deluxe One Bedroom Suite being a Genius Level 3 member. The room is spacious and comes with a kitchen, living room, and bedroom.</p>

<p>In addition, there is a washer and dryer being provided too, and that will take care of the laundry which usually becomes a nightmare when home. ð</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://suanmeizai.blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/20230708_075331-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-15550"/></figure>



<p>Wow! The hotel even comes equipped with an indoor swimming pool. </p>



<p>After check-in, headed over to Darling Harbour which is a short walk away from the hotel.</p>

<p>Sydney&#8217;s Darling Harbour is a mecca for entertainment and waterfront dining in the city centre. </p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://suanmeizai.blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/20230702_162304-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-15373"/></figure>

<p>The precinct is alive with activity and plays host to Sydney&#8217;s top attractions including the Sea Life Aquarium, Madame Tussauds Wax Museum, Wild Life Sydney Zoo and the Australian National Maritime Museum.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://suanmeizai.blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/20230702_162217-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-15375"/></figure>



<p>The Pyrmont Bridge, a heritage-listed swing bridge across Cockle Bay Wharf, is located in Darling Harbour, part of Port Jackson, west of the central business district.</p>



<p>Sydney Tower is the tallest structure in Sydney, Australia, and the second-tallest observation tower in the Southern Hemisphere. It is located at Market Street.</p>

<p>Waking up to a chill and relaxed Day 2 morning. This trip is more to break away from the heat back home. Food wise, there is nothing much to anticipate and shout about as food typically in Sydney is expensive, especially compared to neighbouring Asian countries. Australian cuisine mainly hovers around sandwiches, burgers, salads, fish and chips, etc. you know what I mean. ð¤¦</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://suanmeizai.blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/20230703_100034-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-15385"/></figure>



<p>Enjoying complimentary breakfast by courtesy of the hotel at Brew Bros, which is right beside the hotel. Typically I will book the room without breakfast option. Interestingly, the hotel receptionist informed me upon check-in yesterday that if full payment were to be made by cash, I would enjoy a further discount of AUD$84 in addition to the free breakfast that will be bundled in throughout my stay. This is definitely a no-brainer. Sadly, in Sydney, credit or debit card payment is not encouraged at all places, including restaurants and retail shops, as a surcharge of about 1.4% to 2% will be levied above the actual charge. ð¤£</p>

<p>I can now imagine what I will be having for the next few mornings. ð¤£</p>



<p>After breakfast, I did some casual sightseeing around Sydney city, this being a relaxing trip without a specific planned agenda.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://suanmeizai.blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/20230703_100504-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-15389"/></figure>

<p>Instead of taking a light rail (3 stops) to Circular Quay, I decided to take a 30 mins leisure stroll from QVB.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://suanmeizai.blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/20230703_113452-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-15394"/></figure>



<p>The Circular Quay area is a popular neighbourhood for tourism and consists of walkways, pedestrian malls, parks, and restaurants. It hosts a number of ferry quays, bus stops, and a railway station. It is often referred to as the &#8220;gateway to Sydney&#8221;, the precinct has views of the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Sydney Opera House and is a common location for viewing Sydney New Year&#8217;s Eve fireworks.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://suanmeizai.blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/20230703_112903-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-15395"/></figure>



<p>The Sydney Harbour Bridge is a steel through arch bridge in Sydney, spanning Sydney Harbour from the central business district (CBD) to the North Shore. It is one of the world&#8217;s greatest arch bridges.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://suanmeizai.blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/20230703_112127-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-15396"/></figure>



<p>The Sydney Opera House, located on the foreshore of Sydney Harbour, is a multi-venue performing arts centre in Sydney. It is widely regarded as one of the world&#8217;s most famous and distinctive buildings and a masterpiece of 20th-century architecture.</p>



<p>These are the 2 key iconic landmarks when in Sydney.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://suanmeizai.blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/20230703_124341-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-15397"/></figure>



<p>Thereafter, proceeded to have a quick lunch at Oporto before making a visit to Bondi Beach.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://suanmeizai.blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/20230703_124750-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-15398"/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><strong><em>Quarter Chicken &; Chips with 2 Crisp Strips</em></strong></figcaption></figure>



<p><strong><em>How to go to Bondi Beach from Circular Quay?</em></strong></p>



<p>You may hop on to Bus #333 at bus stand B right outside of Circular Quay and alight at Bondi Beach Stop, and the journey will take about 45 mins.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://suanmeizai.blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/Collage2023-07-0323_52_56-1024x1024.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-15399"/></figure>



<p>Iconic Bondi Beach, an Australian beach with the best sands and waves. Sun, sand and sea persona will love this for sure. </p>

<p>Ice skating fun at Bondi Festival.</p>



<p>After spending a fun time at the beach, it is time to head back to the city.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://suanmeizai.blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/20230703_164134-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-15402"/></figure>

<p>Followed by a light dinner at KFC before ending the night. During winter, the sky turns dark quickly after 5pm and it just gives me a gloomy feel somehow. ð</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://suanmeizai.blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/20230703_185201-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-15408"/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><strong><em>1 Piece Original Chicken &; 2 Piece Wings</em></strong></figcaption></figure>



<p>I remembered vividly that KFC in Australia is a must eat from my last trip 15 years ago. This is due to the chicken breed and quality that makes it deliciously good as far as my memory jotted down. ð</p>



<p>Day 3 &#8211; waking up to a wet morning. It has been forecasted to rain for the entire day. ð¤£</p>



<p>Since it will be raining for the whole of today, I guess there is nothing much I can do except staying indoors. There are a couple of shopping haven within the city to keep me occupied for today. ð«¢</p>

<p>Settle for a quick bite at Toastie Smith at The Galeries. It bears some resemblance of Egg Slut to me. </p>

<p>Being a wet evening, I decided to have my dinner at Monster Sushi &; Bar located right beside the hotel that I am in.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://suanmeizai.blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/20230704_193721-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-15425"/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><em><strong>Curry Chicken Katsu</strong></em></figcaption></figure>

<p>You need to set the expectations right when having Asian cuisines in Australia in general, as you will not get the same kind of expected quality from the food being served. To me, it seems that they place more emphasis &; focus on food quantity than quality. ð¤£</p>



<p>The food tasted bland, the curry sauce is diluted, and ramen broth has no substance and flavours as expected of what a ramen broth is like. How sad, but mind-boggling (to me), as how could their locals accept such food quality standards? Haiz! ð¤¦</p>



<p>Well, that brings Day 3 to an end.</p>



<p>Day 4, starting the day early as I have signed up to join a full-day tour to Blue Mountains with Cruise. Thus, I have to make my own way to the scheduled location at Park Royal Darling Harbour (diagonally across YEHS Hotel) for the complimentary pick-up.</p>



<p>Thankfully, the weather for today is forecasted to be bright and sunny, ideally great for outdoor activity.</p>



<p>For now, I will just have to sit back, relax and enjoy the excursion from Sydney into the Blue Mountains.</p>



<p>First itinerary, paid a visit to Featherdale Wildlife Park and experience the amazing variety of Australian wildlife. Hand-feed kangaroos, see koalas and wombats as well as many more native Australian birds and wildlife.</p>

<p>After spending an enjoyable morning at Featherdale Wildlife Park, it&#8217;s time to bid farewell for the next destination, Leura Village, for lunch.</p>



<p>Leura Village is a picturesque suburb town in the city of Blue Mountains. A nice small town with cafés, restaurants and shops.</p>

<p>Taking in the scenic and paranomic views of The 3 Sisters, Jamison Valley &; Orphan Rock.</p>

<p>Then, heading on next to Scenic World and have fun with 3 rides at Scenic World, cableway, skyway, and railway.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://suanmeizai.blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/20230705_135628-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-15457"/></figure>



<p>At a 52-degree incline, the scenic railway is the steepest passenger train in the world. You can be sure of a breathtaking ride! ð±</p>



<p>You may also walk on air on the scenic skyway&#8217;s glass floor as you glide between the cliff tops above the Jamison Valley. At 270 metres, it is the highest cable car in Australia.</p>



<p>Alternatively, you can choose to descend the 545 metres into the Jamison Valley using the scenic cableway.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://suanmeizai.blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/20230705_134027-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-15458"/></figure>

<p>Last but not least, you can also go on a scenic walkway by strolling amongst ancient, temperate rainforest. </p>

<p>With a selection of walks totalling 2.4 km, the walkway is the longest elevated boardwalk in Australia.</p>

<p>Take a pit stop at Terrace Bar &; Café at Scenic World for a snack brekkie.</p>

<p>Finally, it&#8217;s time to head back to Sydney via ferry cruise (after a good time at Scenic World) to bypass Sydney&#8217;s peak traffic and soak up the views along Parramatta River into Circular Quay.</p>
