See ya later Australia, Bula Bula Fiji

So it has been our final week in Australia. We have moved out of our apartment in Darling Harbour and into the hostelling world once more. We are staying at the Railway Central YHA in an actual train carriage which is right on Central station platform.....is strange waking up with commuters walking past!

We have made sure we have crossed everything off the list this week including the Harry Potter Exhibition where they exhibited costumes and props from the various films.

The weekend brought great weather so we made the most of the sunshine and did a lot of walking. We walked across the Sydney Harbour Bridge and looked in at Luna Park and we went and explored the Dragon Boat Racing in Darling Harbour, in aid of the Chinese New Year.

We have been out for a couple of nice meals over the past few days - we tried out a Sushi train which was cool. You have to pick your sushi dish off the revolving belt and then you pay for it at the end. Each plate is a different colour which has an assigned value to it. $56 later and we were pretty full!

We went to The Meat and Wine Co. where we had a great meal - I had Pork Belly and Bex had a Steak Sandwich. Both were really nice, although Becky's won the taste test!!
We also went out for a meal last night - to a Seafood restaurant called SeaRock. We had a Seafood platter to share - Oysters, Shelled Crab, Prawns, Octopus, fish bites and Rustic Chips. Was hard work eating it but tasted great. The gooey chocolate brownie after was to die for!

Have managed to send back a box of excess 'stuff' - christmas decorations, clothing, books, shoes....the norm. Only a mere 13 Kilos!! So glad we have got rid of it as it would have been torture carrying it around with us. Will have some more to send back once we hit Singapore.

So it is our last night tonight and we went all out and headed to the Harbour for a 3 course meal and cocktails. We then hit the hard stuff - a Guylian Hot Chocolate! Tomorrow it's up early so we can jump on the train to the airport and catch the 08:55 to Nadi, Fiji!

Australia, you have been kind to us, see you again soon!!
