A trip to Australia took place at the junction of years for that would celebrate the New Year in Sydney for their famous fireworks. The flight was made with the airline Cathay Pacific in Hong Kong, docking, docking a very comfortable 3 hours. We are underpaid by $ 100 per person for each flight, for which we have put the emergency exit is almost lying down, but the truth is it was cold. In general, flight-long night passed with flying colors.
The first item on our trip was the city of Melbourne. Settled in the Park Hyatt Melbourne Hotel 5 *. Excellent hotel with very spacious rooms, well located, though breakfast is mediocre, but this is probably Australia's national trait.
For inspection of Melbourne we had the freedom one day because There is nothing special to watch, rose to the observation deck on the roof of a skyscraper ($ 17.5 per person) looked at the panorama of the city, walked around the city and its parks.
The next day went to the famous Great Ocean Road. To be honest in her great and did not understand, just the road along the ocean. But the rock "12 Apostles" liked. Even on the road passing through the eucalyptus grove seen a couple peacefully chewing the leaves Koala.
The next day we moved on a plane to Sydney. Settled in the Hotel Sofitel Sidney Wentworth 5 *. The hotel definitely not 5 *, and at best 4 *. The rooms are small, breakfast is traditionally mediocre. The truth is a good idea of it as equally close to Hyde Park, so on to the aquarium and the Sydney Opera House not more than 10 minutes to each of these points.
On inspection of Sydney took us two full days and then had difficulty. We took a helicopter tour ($ 700 for the whole car max 3 people), have examined the entire coastline of Sydney's outlying areas and the natural center and all it took about an hour of flight time. All the rest of the time walked, visited the aquarium and there is a small zoo (both on my $ 30 per person). Zoo is nothing special, but the aquarium is excellent. A walk through the parks.
We strongly recommend you go after 10pm feed Possum in Hyde Park. As a treat we took the grapes - went with a bang. Naturally visited the Sydney Opera House and bridge.
As I said in our plan was to meet the New Year in Sydney and, accordingly, beholding vaunted fireworks. Since the Sydney heard about the fireworks, not only we, but still about a million tourists from all over the world specially to him who came to Sydney, we had to shell out at a table in the restaurant at the Harbour Bridge, the alternative - a couple of days living in a sleeping bag in the port of another good species will not. Place us at a table at a cost of $ 350 a person, but was included in the price of food and mediocre poilo and even what you guys singing songs.
In general, if without undue emotion - is the fact that the fireworks would be specifically for him to go, it's really one of the main attractions of Australia. Another interesting feature of Fireworks 2 - the first version of the light at 21:00 for children and the second in 00:00 for the rest. At 1:00 the event ends and the restaurants are closed. I was shooting fireworks on your mobile, but the video will not spread as the internet is full of better movies than the Sydney fireworks my hand made.
After seeing Sydney, we went to look at the famous Blue Mountains. Honestly not impressed, in my opinion in any mountain range there are landscapes. But the road to the Blue Mountains, we stopped at a large zoo with an assortment of presents all the fauna of Australia. Moreover, almost all the animals on open pasture that is they can pet, hug, feed, etc. This zoo has become for us one of the two main attractions of Australia, along with fireworks.
The next day we devoted to alcohol is went on a trip to the wine provinces of Australia. Tastings are held on the fine, we have held themselves as best they could - toast did not say, do not check, did not sing songs and do not even fought. Wine is generally liked, including sparkling, but it did not fly back home - to drive away.That's all our micro tour of Australia. The overall impression is not bad, but there is a slight disappointment because seemed to arriving at such a distance you see something beyond special, but everything is ordinary. As the prices of all, the country is quite expensive. An interesting feature, although the official rate of the Australian dollar to the U.S. about 1:1 is actually a single American in the exchange offer 0.87 Australian exchangers and all, without exception, apparently they have what the tax is charged or when the exchange rates are taken from the banks for the service . Therefore, in any store you can try to pay in cash U.S. dollars at the exchange rate of 1:1. We are not just rolled in the souvenir shops, and boutiques such as Louis Vuitton. So there is a good opportunity to save money. And you can still get a tax free for about 9%.
