my weekender in SYDNEY!!

Hey ladies and gentlemen, it feels like ages since Ive been on here and have surely missed it! I have been  busy with things and stuff as usual andddddd I took a lil trip to Sydney on the weekend with a lovely friend. I have been wanting to go for quite a while but all my good for nothn' family and close friends just didn't have the time or means to oblige me, but, when I heard ZARA had opened a store there, my WANT turned into a NEED!!! Mussssst haveeeeee Zaraaaaa.....

Ok I know I'm a nutter, so shoot me.

So off I went with my friend Yussra, who actually asked me to go with her as she was due for a trip so Alhamdulillah it worked out well! I had an awesome time in Sydney!  Highlights for me were most definitely meeting for the first time two friends I have made through my FB business, Samia and Zaynab, it was so nice to meet face to face and find out that they were both as genuine and wonderful as they seemed through our FB encounters. I also fell in love with Circular Quay, having coffee by the water, with the Opera House and Harbour Bridge for views on balmy nights. Neptune Palace with the yummiest Chinese food!. The interesting Lebanese concept of restaurant wherein they have a FULL ON CHARCOAL BARBEQUE outside, on the footpath on the STREET! lollll, we had a right royal laugh at that!! The time Yussra parked our hire car in the Opera House underground parking which she couldn't remember where she parked and was sure it must have been stolen only to be found one and half hours later!! And finally the shopping! We didn't do heaps but just enough for my appetite to be satisfied! Zara I love you!

I must say however I think Sydney is really run down looking, the roads are REALLY bad, the bus drivers grumpy side swipers and there are no cafes around every corner like in Melbourne!!

Have to say a big thanks to Yussra for the great adventure!!!!

I'm sorry ladies I didn't take my camera (NEVER listen to your hubby when he says , "you don't want to lug that around do you? just take pics with your phone") The pics are not the same, so I have  few from my phone and some from my friends enjoy!
