Arrival in Sydney

It's an 8 hr flight to Sydney - of cuz cannot waste the time to sleep rite. Must chiong inflight entertainment, haha (since I dont usually watch movies in SG) Managed to catch 2 movies.
Enchanted

Alvin and the Chipmunks

Love both movies, very heartwarming and funny. The chipmunks are cute!
I love SQ for their meals (ya, I actually do love inflight meals, haha), esp this beef. The beef is so juicy and tender. There was another refreshment, but I was too hungry to take a picture of it.

Finally, after 8 hrs of flight - I arrived in Sydney at 8.45pm local time. Was dead tired and didnt even stop to take pictures of the airport. Took a cab immediately to the hotel after clearing the customs. I stayed at The Westin and wow ~ I love the room!

15th floor, wondering if I will get nice view of the city .... 1504, for those 4D wannabees.

Call me sua ku, but this is kind of high-tech for me. Normally, you just hang the "Do not disturb" sign at the doorknob. However, in The Westin, you actually have a button inside the room that lights up the DND sign, wow ~

The huge double bed that has 4 pillows so soft that I need to sleep on 3 for support

Working area + TV (love the TV)


The corridor full of mirrors, so that I can do last min check while walking out of the room.


The huge bathroom that have 2 separate doors - 1 for shower and 1 for toilet

Plus a bath tub that is separated from the bed with a glass panel (Leecher will surely like this, haha)

View from inside the bathroom

The pizza that I ordered for my dinner - sad to say, it kind of sucks.

Next up, my stay in Sydney....nite everyone ~

Off the Sydney

I was scheduled to go to Sydney for a 3D2N business trip. As I didn't want to step into the office once the plane landed, I decided to go one day early - that means that my Sunday is spent on the plane, crossing across the ocean to fly to Sydney.

Woke up at 5.45am on a Sunday morning to prepare and went to fetch Leecher, who took the effort to accompany me to the airport -hugs- It turned out that I mis-calculated the timing - my flight is at 9.40am, thus, I need to be at the airport around 8.15am (since I did internet check-in the day before). I told myself that it would take 1h 15 mins for me to travel from CCK to Hougang to Changi Airport and with some time for allowance for the traffic jam. When I was at Hougang, it suddenly occured to me that its Sunday - there wont be any jams! Arg!

Arrival at Changi Airport Terminal 3 - well, at least we can kill time by exploring the place :)

His "sulky" face for being up so early due to my mis-calculated timing

Wow, the airport looks cool ~

Pardon me for looking "cui", need to fly for 8 hrs, must be comfortable

Leecher's smiling face when I promised to treat him to breakfast

That's my flight - wanted to book myself on the A380, but the timing was so off

Leecher is pointing to our next holiday destination *hint hint*

Trying to act pai kia in the airport

At the observatory deck, watching the planes, i wanna go on holiday!

T3 looks very nice with the green interior, but I didnt have chance to sit on the comfy seats, cuz I was rushing for my flight (and I got mistaken for being a Korean once again, Arg)

Had breakfast at Wang Jiao, Leecher ordered Set A while I had the mee rubus (which is quite spicy)

Leecher happily eating his eggs, haha.

Our picture before I went into the departure hall ~

See you guys on Thurs, missing everyone!
