We were looking for something more like a restaurant, but most of them were not open for
early dinner, so we ended up at Jindabyne Seafood. It was a takeaway shop with a few
tables in front of it. Nevertheless, we were quite happy with our choice. While we were
waiting for our food,...

The Chamartin was the last hotel I stayed in Spain. All others were traditional hotels
with tiny rooms, decorated in dull, dark colours. The Chamartin was a very pleasant
change. While not ultra modern, the rooms were spacious, functional and bright. Apart from
some food shops, the...

Featherdale Wildlife Park has the largest collection of Australian native animals. It
takes up a relatively small area and yet, I cannot think of an Australian animal that was
not represented. Wallabies, kangaroos, echidnas, wombats, Tasmanian devils, dingoes,
kookaburras, crocodiles,...

Wallabies

My baby was asleep in the pram, so I decided to take a moment to relax with a cup of
coffee at Coffee ‘n’ Things. At first, they brought me the wrong type of coffee. I
really did not care, but the waiter noticed his mistake and insisted to correct it. I
would have preferred to keep...

There is a corner where koala bears are brought in, one at a time, and seated on a branch.
You can touch them and take a photo with them, but you cannot hold them. This is
understandable, after all they are delicate animals and they would not be happy being
cuddled by hundreds of...

It seemed to be a common belief in Bulgaria that babies should wear socks at all times,
even if the temperatures hit 35 degrees Celsius. We were there in summer and everyday
strangers came up to us to tell us that our baby should be wearing socks. It was fun at
first, but it soon...

Throughout the park, there are several areas where animals roam free – you can pat and
feed kangaroos, wallabies, emus, birds, and there is also a farm area. Kangaroo food is
provided at $1 per waffle cone. The animals are used to people and are quite happy to eat
out of your hands....

Kangaroo feeding...

This new Chinese restaurant is located at the Easts Leagues Club. We went there for yum
cha lunch and we had to order from a menu rather than pick our food from a trolley. I was
disappointed about it at first, as I find it easier to pick things that I see. But after a
thought, it was...

This Chinese restaurant has been around for a while and it has well established clientele.
When we went there for the first time, the owner recognised us straight away as new and
came up to introduce himself. We have been there many times since, both to eat in and to
get some...

Apart from the free-roaming animals, here are the other highlights of my visit: the
dingoes who had six little puppies (at least I counted six, there might have been more)
and the wombats, lazily fighting over the entrance space of their cave. I was also very
impressed by the...

Wombats
Black-necked stork

For a while, I had been walking past a sign advertising breakfast from $4.90 (most of the
cafes in the area will charge approx. $8 for two eggs and toast), but the cafe was not
close to my house so I had not had a chance to try it. Yesterday, my toddler was a bit
unsettled, so I...

Whale watching season is from May to November when Humpback whales are migrating north to
give birth and mate. First, we thought about going on a cruise in May, but after
researching the offers, we found that companies offer the best guarantees in Jun – Jul
(they will give you at...

There is a variety of cruise companies in Sydney, offering anything from small boats to
large catamarans. There are morning and afternoon cruises of different duration – 2, 3
or 4 hour. Sea sickness was a concern to us, as our son (18 months) had not been in the
ocean before and we...

We boarded our boat in Circular Key and enjoyed views of the Sydney Harbour on the way.
The sea was quite flat at first, but once we crossed into the open ocean, we could feel
the difference immediately. That was when a lot of people turned yellow (including my son)
and went out on...

It did not take us long to find the whales, as the crew knew exactly where they were. At
first, we could only see the spouts coming out of their heads and it was hard to tell if
they were whales or just the waves. Soon we got quite close. We chose to follow a
group of three...

The rooms were not overly luxurious, but adequate for the standard of the hotel. The
restaurant offered good food and friendly service. A very attractive feature of the resort
is the Orang Utan reserve. We had the opportunity to view the Orang Utans at feeding time.
Only the young...

The garden was very beautiful with great variety of orchids. There were hardly any
visitors and it was a fantastic change from the crowds of the big city. I spent about an
hour looking at the flowers and taking photos (which I lost to a computer breakdown).
Bring some insect...

This festival is on every year in August (I was there in 2007). The main event took place
in the Open Air Theatre in the Sea Garden, but I could not go to any of the concerts,
because of my baby’s early bed time. I did watch some of the free events, though. There
were 3 stages with...

The palace was quite interesting with its numerous rooms and halls with exquisite
furnishings. What I found truly amazing, though, were the gardens. The park was very large
and maintained flawlessly. I could not imagine how much effort and how many gardeners it
would take! The hedges...




14:32 26.04.2008

Before my arrival I had read in some reports that the rooms were very small, but the room
I got was actually a decent size, much bigger than what I expected. The furniture looked
very dated, but apart from that, it was very comfortable. I stayed at the Imperial hotel
for a week and I...
