Tour: Sydney-Sydney Wildlife World
|
|
SPOILER: this is gonna be a very LONG entry :SPOILER
Balik dari BM, sampai city around 1600. Ikut schedule, takde apa2 activity dah for that day. Most people g shopping time tu. Aku plak? Blom puas merayau arrr! Plan asalnya aku+Huong+Radin nak g Sydney Aquarium+Sydney Wildlife World around 1830@1900, so ada few hours to kill. Radin nak g spa+massage & Huong plak nak g Kingston jumpa member dia. Tinggal aku dengan Javier je melongo 
| Quote: | The origin of Paddy's as a distinct market dates back to 1834 when Governor Bourke decided to move traders in hay and grain to a site next to the new cattle market in Campbell Street, Sydney. The move created a split among stallholders within the "fringe" market. Some had regular customers among the cattlemen and hay and grain growers, and they moved to join farmers in the new Haymarket area. The food sellers and second hand dealers also did a good trade, both in the vicinity of the market house and around the Haymarket pubs. The majority, however, stayed on at the George Street market.
Governor Bourke's decision to allow the market to stay open until 10.00pm on Saturdays marks the real beginnings of what we know today as Sydney's Paddy's Markets.
By 1842, when the markets came under the jurisdiction of Sydney Council, the Saturday Paddy's-style market was well established. The Council gave it another boost by allowing the George Street market to remain open until 10.00 pm on Wednesday nights. |

Aku ingat nak pegi Paddy's market kat Haymarket sebab Etta (amoi) kata tempat tu macam Queen Victoria Market (sapa2 penah dtg Melb tau arr camna rupa QVM nieh). Tapi market tuh bukak ari khamis sampai ahad je *sigh* Aku plak dok craving for masakan melayu, sambil merayau2 tuh dok usha2 kalau2 ada restoran malaysia. Aku seret mamat Mexico tu teman aku g cari restoran malaysia.
Pusing punya pusing, sekali jumpa Cafe Kasturi on George Street!!! YAHOO!!  tepon amoi ajak kalau2 dia nak join makan pasal siang tuh dia ada citer yg dia pon tgh ngidam nak makan rendang  Tunggu amoi datang dengan Yen, dah dekat pkl 7. Pastuh tunggu Radin plak datang, abes dinner semua pon dah pkl 1900++. Kelam kabut kitaorg (aku+Javier+Radin+amoi+Yen) jalan laju2 g Darling harbour sbb takut terlepas last entry ke Sydney Aquarium+Wildlife World.
| Quote: | During the tour, bebudak tuh ada dok tanya kat aku pasal makanan malaysia, so aku cakap nanti balik Melb aku masakkan utk diaorg *masakkan megi boleh?* Dah jumpa restoran malaysia tu aku kasik arr diaorg try sambal ikan bilis nasi lemak. Radin menjerit kepedasan *jahat kan aku?*
p/s: masakan kat Cafe Kasturi mmg sedap arr. Layanan dia pon best! Cuma its a little bit pricey arr. Either that that, superb! |
 Memula kitaorag g aquarium, tapi lady kat reception centre tuh x kasik dah kitaorg masuk. Jadiknya, semua muka seposen pasal xdapat masuk aquarium Lepas tu, g cuba nasib kat Sydney Wildlife World, SWW plak. Javier tak pernah tengok koala, so mmg harap sgt2 dapat masuk. Memula reception lady tuh x kasik dah kitaorg masuk pasal dah pkl 2000 time tuh. Diaorg suh kitaorg datang balik esok siang Maka, dengan muka seposen kitaorg pon bgtau arr yg itu malam last kitaorg kat Sydney sebab esok pagi dah nak kena balik. Tactic menjadi woo!!! Guard bagitau kat reception lady suh kasik gak kitaorg masuk
Sydney Wildlife World ni macam zoo in the city of Sydney arr. Baru lagi bukak menda ni, around September 2006 gitu. Sebab dia attached to Sydney Aquarium, so memang ada offer kalau beli ticket 2in1(~$45+ kot harganya kalau x silap). Kitaorg student, so dapat diskaun tiket masuk SWW (~$19)
Kat dalam SWW ni ada few exhibits. First sekali "Butterflies - Flutter Bys". For me, yang ni biasa je, sebab semua kat dalam dinding kaca. Tahun lepas masa g Melbourne Zoo dulu, ada Butterflies Garden where u can touch the butterfly  (check entry lama2, page 4@5 kalau x silap)
The next exhibit is "Invertebrates - Spineless Wonders"
sengih hepi je si Javier sbb kitaorg dapat masuk SWW
Masa nak masuk "Reptiles - Scales and Tails" exhibit, aku nampak pokok keladi.
Aku: sedapnya kalau dapat makan asam pedas keladi, terliur je bila teringat 
Amoi: pokok keladi tuh apa? 
Aku: aiyark, amoi!!! tuh yang kat belakang you tuh. Yang kaler hijau tuh pokok keladi arr!!! 
amoi: oh ye ke? amik satu my picture with this pokok keladi, boleh? 
Javier cakap kat aku, "I think they know that u are coming here, Nurul Thats why they put up that sign for you!  "
Hampeh sungguh mamat nieh!!! 
Sapa tau apa nama menatang nieh? Dok kalut2 amik gambar, aku lupa nak check nama dia 
Dulu masa Amien (adik aku yg bongsu) kecik2, dia tengok menatang ni kat channel animal planet then dia akan tanya aku "binatang apa tu kak ayu?" Aku jawab "owth, tuh bapak cicak. Tuh pasal dia besar" 
Habes tengok reptilia, kitaorg g tengok "Flight Canyon - Walking on Air"
Pastu plak "Nocturnal After Dark", "Semi-Arid Grasslands - Red Heart", "Rainforest - Lush Canopy" & "Wallaby Cliffs - High and Dry"
malam tuh, amoi jadi model tak bergaji 
Nie lagi satu binatang yg aku tatau nama
Yen+Amoi+Javier+Radin
aborigin's painting
Last exhibit, "Koala Sanctuary - Gum Tree Gully". Tercapai jugak cita2 Javier nak tengok Koala & Kanggaroo+Wallabees.
Cumil pulak aku tengok mamat sorang tu bila main2 dengan binatang melalui dinding kaca. Terserlah sifat penyayang dia pada binatang <---mati la kena belasah kalau mama baca statement nieh  Javier mmg nak buat Veterinary bila masuk uni kat Mexico tahun depan.
Abes dah! Kalau nak lagi banyak info pasal SWW pegi surf kat sini ---> http://www.sydneywildlifeworld.com.au/
Kluar je dari SWW, hujan lebat. Yang ada payung cuma Yen sorang, & hujan takde tanda2 nak surut. Makin lebat ada arr. So I came out with a brilliant idea "redah hujan, jom!" Yang hampeh nya tuh, bila dah halfway perjalanan hujan berhenti daaa. Sabar je la, tahan muka malu jalan kat tgh2 city berkaki ayam & baju basah lencun
