Sydney family trip with a 6-year-old, 20,000 steps a day
Three days in Sydney, full of fun and satisfaction, everything was perfect except for the lack of shopping time. 20,000+ steps a day, but not tired at all, and the kid was great too 👍
Stayed for three nights, captured sunsets from different locations each night, golden afterglow all over the harbor, the gentle silhouette of the Sydney Opera House, lalaland in reality, hard not to be moved 💙
Hotel 🏨:
1️⃣The Fullerton Hotel Sydney 2 nights (core area of the city, next to Martin Place, convenient to go anywhere, hearty breakfast)
2️⃣Quest North Sydney 1 night (Sydney weekend room rates are very high, the last night was chosen in North Sydney, there is a subway bus at the door, also thinking of visiting the North Sydney night view, the most important thing is to choose an apartment to cook, fry steak)
Itinerary 📅:
Day 1: The night before, flew from Melbourne to Sydney late, woke up naturally in the morning, the first day was mainly a leisurely Citywalk: Hyde Park, St. Mary's Cathedral, Art Gallery of New South Wales, Mrs. Macquarie's Chair, Royal Botanic Garden, Sydney Opera House.
Day 2: Early morning Royal Botanic Garden (because the previous afternoon's Mrs. Macquarie's Chair photo was backlit, the teammate insisted on getting up early, re-punching the Opera House's beautiful location, and it turned out that the morning sea was indeed much more beautiful, 40 minutes round trip); after breakfast and rest at the hotel, took the bus to Bondi Beach; returned to the North Sydney hotel at 4 pm to rest and adjust, went to Lavender Bay in the evening to see the night view, walked along the coastal trail to Luna Park, took a cab back to the hotel, bought steak, lamb chops, oysters, and mussels at a nearby supermarket to make dinner at the apartment.
Day 3: Woke up naturally, took the bus from the North Sydney apartment to Taronga Zoo 🐨, 20+ minutes direct to the north gate of the zoo, all the way downhill, returned to the south gate, took the ferry directly to Circular Quay, no return trip, recommended route! After getting off the boat at Circular Quay, took the bus directly to the University of Sydney, took a little stroll, went to Jeffrey Street Wharf in North Sydney to watch the sunset, very few people, a very quiet and great sunset spot, highly recommended! After dark, took a cab to the airport with luggage to catch a late flight back home ✈️
