third morning in sydney. this is the day i've been looking forward to the whole trip! assemble time was 7am.
while we were busy filling out forms, the guy told us wind conditions won't allow us to jump so we'll have to wait till the weather clears up.. which will be about early noon. argh! so meanwhile, we'll have to kill some time. we decided to take a slow walk to circular quay because i wanted to take pictures of the buildings along the city.
st. andrew's cathedral.
we were almost at circular quay when suddenly i spotted max brenner!! we both haven't tried it before so we decided to take a break. never knew singapore had an outlet and i had to learn about max brenner from a malaysian(more specifically edmond). but they say the original is better.. haha. i'll go back to singapore, try max brenner there and then let you know my verdict.
the tubes super cool la. i thought it was just for decoration purposes but the mixer actually sends chocolate to the outlet behind the counter where they serve it.

after our delightful coffee break.. we continued walking.
3-storey apple store.
as we continued on our little 'walk', pow got a call from the guys at skydivers and they told him the weather's fine and we're good to go. so we had to brisk walk all the way back which was tiring like mad la. the ride to our skydiving location was a long one, so we managed to catch some shut eye.
this lock-cock thing was our ride up 14000 feet. the plane was at a upward angle the whole time and it sounded like parts were going to fall off when we were in mid air.
i tried to post my video but it didn't work. hope the pictures are enough.
you guys probably seen something like this on my fb.
but this is the unglam version.. can see the skin flabbing.
watch out.. landing!
it is by far the most extreme activity i've ever participated in and i'm really proud of myself. of course i count myself to be very lucky to have the opportunity to live abroad and gain such experiences. yes money is an issue, but i reckon it's very much worth the investment. and for that, i have my wonderful daddy and mummy to thank.
when we got back to the city, we went straight for lunch(at around 4 plus). decided to eat at chat thai since the queue for dinner is madness. sad thing was, they don't serve tom yam goong for lunch.
after our lunch, we headed back to circular quay(since we got disrupted during the morning). wanted to catch the view of the harbour bridge and opera house in the evening.
haha.. i just had to do that.
tourist must do tourist pose.. even moxi said so.
ok, here's a normal shot.
i think i got a million shots of the harbour bridge and opera house, in almost anytime of the day. LOL! but it is sydney's icon mah.. so just take more la. because we had lunch so late, we took our time to walk back to the city for dinner at nearly 9pm. XIAO LONG BAO at DING TAI FUNG!!! yayy... super pleased me. the wait was long and cold though but i persevered.
happy people after a happy day. went back straight to backpackers.. jumping out of an airplane very shag one you know.
