ok, long overdue entry... wanted to do it on Saturday, but... i realise, i accidentally deleted ALL my wine tour photos the week before... and i only found out like 1 week later... haha damn sian.
Backtrack to Wed 26th bah, went to the easter show, it's an annual big event in Sydney lah, and it runs for like 2 weeks at the Sydney Olympic park. Lots of things inside, rides, bazaars, shows, etc etc, a nice family event. I went in after 5 coz it's cheaper and i was only interested to see some of the shows in the evening (the rides are too ex lah i feel it's not worth it haha)
Olympic Stadium
Entrance at the Easter Show
Saw a Polo match for the 1st time, 3 v 3, it was nice and exciting to watch!
Bull Riding! 1 of the shows I was looking forward to, and it surely did not disappoint manz, haha.
I think the idea is to ride on the bull for like 8-10 secs, and with minimal distance frm where they are released. Many of them can't last for 5 seconds though lol.
After Bull riding, there were some stun performances at the arena

The 1st 1, something familiar lah, so not too impressive for me haha
this is nice, the car went on 2 wheels for 1 round around the track. cool.
And lastly, the bikes flying across the rams. Photos not taken very well haha
Fireworks was the finale, took a few pics only, then the for the rest of it I took a video haha, it lasts for abt 10-15 mins, very nice. =)
On Friday that same week, I went to the wine tour, it was superb, and cheap too, bought 2 bottles of wine... WHY DID I DELETE ALL THE PHOTOSSSSSS RARRRRR. Think gona get a few pics frm my frens who went, if got nice ones I will post the next time bah.
Then, on Sunday, it was the Opera House tour. Never really take a lot of photos, because they dun allow us to take inside the theatres, and there was nothing much outside lah haha. Main thing is tour around the place, and get to know abt the history of the opera house. Price is aud25, inclusive of a free drink, which is suppose to be a good deal and discounted price, but I still feel its quite expensive, coz it was only a 1 hour tour. So I wun really recommend that for those who are coming Sydney for holiday man haha. U can always find out abt the history of the opera house online, and if want to take a look at the theatres, go buy a ticket for a show lah haha, it will be more worth it.
The whole group of us walking to the Opera House (I seriously duno any one of the pple haha)
the 2nd largest theatre of the opera house. the biggest 1 is the concert 1.
Just some random photos, saw pple take, so i take haha.
For last week, I mainly stayed at home to do work, coz got a few online quizzes, an assginment and a test coming up haha. But still very relac lah, never felt so relac before in uni haha. Anyway, on Sunday, I went to the FlugTag, which is the 1st held in Sydney. I din even know anything abt it, my housemates are the ones telling me that theres this big event and its a must go event, so i went with them. haha, and indeed, it was amazing. For thise sua gu like me also duno wat the flugtag is, u can google it to find out more. Basically it's a german word, which means "flying day". So on this day the contestant will make their flying objects and take off frm a ram 6m above water, and see how far they can "fly". haha something like that. And before they take off, they are supposed to have a mini performance with their own selected music. Think they are judged on the deisgn, creativity and the distance they fly.
Oh, yeah and it's obviously sponsored by red bull. The world record so far is 60m, set in Austria. haha but the best the contestants can manage yesterday was only like 18plus m lol.
Very large crowd, more than the Mardi Gras. They say got abt 50,000 pple
One of the 1st contestants, a failure though, it plunge straight down to the water hahaha
This is 1 of my favourites, not sure whether u can see it clearly, but its a mini cooper hahaha, and the performance before they jump was not bad.
This is the one which flew the furthest haha
Another hilarious one haha. Pig.
This 1 was not bad too i think, it dun look like it can fly, but it did better than many which just plunge straight down to the water haha
