Today we woke up in Cairns to finish packing and head over to the airport for our 3 hour flight to Sydney. The trip to the airport and flight were quite uneventful and we found our shuttle bus easily and headed to the timeshare in the Surry Hills section of Sydney, located in the Central Business District. The timeshare was close to a few parks and very close to a variety of shopping centers and restaurants with diverse cuisine. We unpacked and consulted Yelp for dinner options. We came across great recommendations for a Thai restaurant called Spice I Am close to the timeshare and took the suggestion of someone on Yelp to stop by a bottle shop to pick up a bottle of wine as the restaurant, like most here, are "BYO," meaning you can bring in your own drinks, more often than not with no corkage fee. The restaurant was a tiny place, but was crowded with locals, which we took to be a great sign! I ordered veggie Pad Thai ( my go-to) and Tim tried a curry dish. Both were fantastic and we enjoyed the atmosphere.
After dinner, we decided to take a walk around the neighborhood and find a grocery store for breakfast and lunch stuff.
Below are some photos from adventures mentioned in earlier posts, including the esplanade in Cairns, the dive boat we took to the Reef, the living room of the timeshare in Cairns, us at the esplanade pool in Cairns, and the Pad Thai dinner. Enjoy!
