Took urgent leave today to accompany the boy to the doctor cause he had quite a bad bout of gastric pain at 3am in the morning and it still hurts even after he had his med, then it continued till he developed fever and backaches. Headed to the doc and she said he's down with food poisoning. Sucks big time to see him so weak but gotta take good care of him! He's having a nap now after having an injection so hope he wakes up feeling better!
So I thought I should do some blogging to spend some time so I'm here putting up another entry on Australia.

Day 6 was our last morning in Melbourne so we woke up earlier to catch the last few glimpses of the city haha. This is the street just across our hotel!
Had our breakfast within Queen Victoria Market and there were already patrons waiting for their daily dose of coffee
Mini pancakes is how cute! They mix up our order of whipped cream to ice cream so it feels kinda weird to have ice cream at 8am in the morning. :/
Detour-ed for a cup of caffeine for us too! Market Lane Coffee is recommended but it's too strong for me.
Just taking in the sights
Then it was time for the airport as we were catching a flight to Sydney!
We booked the skybus with our hotel so it will bring us to the Domestic Airport. Definitely way more convenient and fuss free than us lugging our baggages and taking public transport.
Caught a glimpse of the Etihad Stadium along the way
It's actually quite luxurious that I took a nap in that hour's ride hehe.
Dearie was starting to feel abit flu-ish so he did not have much appetite for lunch. I had a pie while the boy napped when waiting for our flight.
He spent most of the waiting time snoozing and me reading on my kindle. Time flies though, and before we knew it we were boarding on our 4pm flight to Sydney with Virgin Australia!
Cool lightings in the aircraft haha.
It was an hour's journey so we reached Sydney around 5+pm! It took us awhile to navigate the arrival hall trying to get the Opal card (something like our ezlink) for us to take the train to the city.
After getting kinda lost in the airport, we finally bought our cards at an agency kiosk and made our way to the city. Checked in to our hotel and we headed to a nearby Vietnamese restaurant for a quick dinner. It was dearie's choice of dinner hoping that the hot soup will clear up his nose fast.
Dinner was at a kinda popular eatery - Me Oi
We ordered vietnamese spring rolls and pho! Honestly, I don't quite know how to appreciate vietnamese spring rolls so its quite meh for me but dearie likes it.
The portion for pho was huge. Thank god I ordered the smaller size else I would not be able to finish it. Dearie had the larger size and was struggling.
Thereafter, we takeaway a chicken pie for supper from Harry's Cafe De Wheels as it was recommended for their pies. The pie tasted quite normal though but probably cause we had it cold.
Back to the hotel for an early night's rest and that's how our first night went in Sydney haha. Definitely not very exciting lol.
