31.12.2009 Sydney

For the last day of the year we had not made too much, because we wanted for our evening event . Rest A cloudy sky invited to visit at last the Queen Victoria Building "from the inside (Beate grumbled ever since the first day in Sydney, that they necessarily the" QVB "wanted).

But first we went for breakfast and because we were a bit late and long queues outside the restaurant were, we decided at short notice, our breakfast in the Executive Lounge on the 24th Stock take.

Other guests had already made us aware that we as Executive Members of the hotel with the choice of the normal restaurant with the "rabble" to eat or an exclusive breakfast in take the special lounge. When we up in the 24th competed for breakfast, we were quite disappointed, what awaited us there. The buffet was pretty much already been cleared for an omelet, we should pay extra $ 12 off of salmon and it was far and no sign. All this is in the lower great breakfast restaurant, of course.

We sat down briefly, ate a snack, after we finally after a long delay, a cutlery and got us right were agreed that we would go back into the large restaurant, there to finish our breakfast. But here was this morning, the worm in it. The staff was hopelessly overwhelmed by the many guests and so we had no coffee first and then it was only part of the buffet or in full, rolls, there was no more. Well, we thought - it can on that day only get better!

After more or less breakfast we were on our way to "Myer" to underground from there, "Queen Victoria Building" to come. It made a lot of fun to stroll along the little shops here and there, a look watch and then we were still a few bucks off for trinkets and costume jewelry - we had the evening something before and the last shopping for the perfect styling were absolutely necessary.

We were also very impressed by the special atmosphere in this old building, which invited us directly for shopping. For two hours we strolled through the long passages and then made our shopping with our achievements on the way back to the hotel.

After we had everything from tried-and we had a nap to recharge energy for the evening. Then it was time to start with the first style and on time at 17.30 clock we found ourselves in to our evening snacks in the lounge.

There was a colorful mix of elegant evening wear in attired guests to the beach shorts and flip-flops represented. Just as we were leaving the noble halls, we talked to a Swiss couple and we were still nice to talk, because they had only one month New Zealand Australia and a month behind in the new year and would still spend another month in Australia.

We're always amazed at the journeys are now made and how many people traveled far we have made on our three-month trip already.

finally arrived back in our front room, has now moved and pimped. Mirjam on television could see their great joy, "Dinner for one", as tradition wants. On the news there have been reports on the state of emergency in and around Sydney Harbour.

We were very glad we had booked early on something else and at 20.30 clock we set in our elegant evening suits on the way to the Sydney Tower ", which only a block away, next to the Swissotel.

quite unusual for us, we met on the way many people in evening dress, all women were without a jacket kurzärmlich or pinafore dress through the streets. It was really very hot and we came with our jackets directly out of place before.

At the entrance to the Sydney Tower "waiting for us already three security men. Then there was the next inspection by a lady who checked the tickets. Then we went into the hall to the tower where we had to go through a detector-arm. Beatrice was also screened and it honked like crazy - yet it was of course admitted.

(filled the hall in the meantime) After another 15 minutes, we were the first by elevator to the "Sky Lounge", which is over 250 meters. It hosted a New Year's party that evening, we stop with $ 250 per person were still quite cheaply. You have to say that prices are on this evening for restaurant meals in port or cruise with over 500 AUS $ per person no exception. Here is an example of an evening called at the opera, where they have the cheapest tickets were $ 895 OFF.

We also wanted to save us but also the hype and the crowd in and around the harbor. Each year 1.5 million people flock to the vicinity of the fireworks and sit partly in the morning starting at the most strategic locations.

Because we went up first in the Tower, we could have a nine-Clock-fireworks To see which is specifically designed for families with children. Included in our ticket price were all the drinks and finger food.

same time equipped with a glass of wine, we secured the best seats at the window opposite Harbour Bridge and Opera House. Gradually filled up the room and after the appropriate amount of alcohol danced diligently for disco music.

At 23:00 clock, clock at 23.30, at 23.45 and at 23.55 clock clock the first rocket went into the air to make people aware that it would start soon. A huge amount of ships passed through the port and half an hour before the fireworks built from a piece of the bridge in the port on.

For us it was wonderful to watch the city lights and decorated with lots of light vessels from above.

At exactly 24.00 Clock started Syndey the big fireworks and most spectacular were the fountain of lights, which were fired from the bridge. A bit disappointed we were that the whole thing in just under a quarter of an hour had passed already.

It was spectacular, but that travel for this event so many people who are defending their seats all day or spend thousands of dollars to to time being there is already a bit exaggerated.

Shortly after the fireworks we watched from above the crowds, which blocked by, for car traffic, spilled downtown. Without more and more people came from the port and after we have a Cha-cha had laid on the floor, we started at 1.30 clock on the way to our hotel.

We had fascinated at the George Street stop to watch the whole event. The really exciting thing about this largest New Year's Eve party in the world were the many young people who were partially clad and fitted with flashing lights, on the road. Because the whole event by many police and security forces was monitored, everything went very peacefully and orderly.

And because the observing of the many people made so much fun, we were not before 3.00 clock back at the hotel.

We would leave us a year ago and have not dreamed that we would actually slide into the new decade in Sydney.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Today we expect the ideal day out: the sun, clouds, 25 ° C and wind. So we could transpose our plans into action and get our last day with the public transport ticket to the "Bondi Beach" to come. But

we went to the "Town Hall station, drove from there take a train to Bondi Junction and would then continue by bus to Bondi Beach. As usual, we used the escalator and when we arrived, we could not believe our eyes: from the escalator to the exit door to the bus stop there was a huge queue.

stayed What can we do otherwise, we introduced ourselves to stop back and were curious to see how long it would take until we would get a suitable bus. Once only did a bus in front of an earlier date that were not wheelchair accessible.

short time later, however, held an articulated and nearly all were waiting aboard. We had to wait further because there were still about 20 people ahead of us. The next bus arrived soon after, and quite naturally the ramp was lowered and all other passengers had to wait until Beatrice had taken their special wheelchair space.

some point it really took off toward the beach. We knew not what we were doing, but we got out there, where all left the bus and were actually on the legendary "Bondi Beach". As at many Australian beaches before, so we expected here too white powder sand, turquoise sea and many high waves.

We watched the funny goings on the beach for a while and then took a walk to the end of the bay. Heading was again shot many photos, and soon we were on our way back to the City.

We asked ourselves again at the bus stop and waited as this which would drive up on buses. We were lucky and after a few minutes, a bus stopped with the word "Circular Quay". That was exactly the place where we wanted to go.

If we had used the train again, we would change trains twice. Nevertheless, the trip took obviously take longer and the first three quarters of an hour later we landed in Sydney Harbour.

We bought a few drinks and then walked to the Wharf 3, because we wanted to take ferry to Manly. Since we had another very lucky, because two minutes later, the gates had been closed.

So we could still run into the huge ferry and half an hour later we had "Manly" is achieved. There, crowds flocked to the board of evil already dawned on us and when we came through the large terminal, in which everything was represented, from McDonalds Aldi.

through the busy pedestrian zone, we tailgated us to "Manly Beach". Such a good beach, we had yet seen in Australia before. It was seen that here for a holiday period and the other highlight of the year approaches, namely the New Year's fireworks.

More and more people flock to Sydney and in the surrounding area. So slowly we can take a picture of what we are expected tomorrow in the city.

We rested on the beach promenade and the atmosphere could affect us.

Then it was time to leave, because first we had a ferry and later by bus to the hotel . Go

So far we had not realized how big the ferry was in existence, but when it came to boarding, 1,100 people flocked to the pier and it was downright pushing. On the ship we were able to get standing room only (Beate had no problem getting a seat, she had her chair so there.).

At the entrance to the Sydney Harbour, it was again this time absolutely spectacular in the evening sun, the "Harbour Bridge" and the "Opera House" to see.

arrived in the harbor, we were on our way to the bus stops. We are now old hands and have no problem with one of the 20 buses that go behind each other to select.

Unfortunately we have so far not yet understood, which routes the buses take, but we knew to always help by simply asking the bus driver. A few minutes later we met at the Queen Victoria Building "which found the way out in the lower levels of" Myer "and decided this time to Italian cuisine.

brought the lasagna and tortellini, we ate in the room before we ourselves comfortable in the Executive Lounge on white wine and champagne making.

Jaaaa! The good weather has again! Already on the "early" morning we had a bright blue sky with a few white fluffy clouds.

all excited about the great weather we had breakfast and then made our fast same with the train on the way to Circular Quay. Once again, our attentive staff had discovered the Australian U-Bahn and immediately was someone ready with the obligatory folding ramp for us to leave the train.

We had to wait at the lift and something extra for us the train was stopped until we were safely in the compartment. When we arrived two stops was unfortunately not one of the first kind see folding ramp workers and unceremoniously dumped Mirjam wheelchair on two wheels and hey presto we were on the platform.

was very shocked us a "Klapprampenanlegerin" counter and apologized several times that she was a few seconds too late and we now had to deal with two-inch high step alone. Then she told us at length the way to the lift, we put up the first time also. We saw the long line of baby carriages in front of it and wanted to roll directly to our favorite means of transport in the escalator.

The lady who had been previously shocked, was now almost over the moon and strictly forbade us, driving with the oh so dangerous escalator. Like how we are (sometimes), we introduced ourselves to the lift and hours later, "we reached the lower floor.

From there we searched with our indispensable map the way to the Royal Botanic Gardens. Once there, our path led us first of all to Government House, surrounded by beautiful gardens overlooking the Opera House and harbor. Again, the camera was again hot.

the way we were able to experience the first preparations for the big New Year's Eve fireworks. We are sometimes very interesting to see what we can expect in a few days here. We watched the setting up of dozens of toilets, the shut off with high fences and the attachment of various signs, which told the same time that driving on all roads around the port from 31 December is prohibited.

We went along Macquarie Street, where we admired the beautiful buildings of the "State Library",

of "Parliament House" and Sydney Hospital. "

were on our way to go, other well-restored, to old buildings, stood out the most in that they were in the midst of the modern glass-fronted skyscrapers.

Soon we were between a building of the New South Wales Government and the already known to us, "St. Mary's Church arrived. Here we investigated the Handicapped, because we really wanted to see the church from within.

was the main entrance there are so many levels that it would have been impossible to cope with the wheelchair. On the side wing of the church we found the designated wheelchair entrance with a bell that we used, but not really believed that we would open one. But in Aussie-land is now once everything is possible and even a short time later we were allowed into the church.

And it was worth it, because only the stained glass windows shone because of the sunny day. Also inspired the characters and the wonderful crib us. After a few quiet minutes in the aisle we were on our way to Hyde Park, where we are before the "Archibald Fountain" posed for photos.

from the forced march became a little thirsty, we bought two bottles of cold lemonade and meddled with the working people who spent their lunch break.

came only a few steps away we returned to our hotel and then were discussing how we wanted to make the day more. For some time we had planned to go to the Harbour Bridge, but the weather had scotched plans.

Now we took the bus to the Rocks got out there, crossed the narrow streets with their beautiful little cafes and restaurants, and tormented us heat up some steep slopes. Soon we arrived at the information center, where we wanted to advise us leave them as the "ascent" of the bridge is possible with the wheelchair.

Our concierge had told us that on one of the pillars would be a viewing platform, which is accessible by elevator. The lady at the Information Center was once asked about something, then long phone call with the Department for the disabled, referring again to another place. We were equipped with a special wheelchair town plan and learned that only stairs leading to the observation deck on the bridge.

But for every obstacle We can only be a challenge, we went on the road anyway. After exhausting detours we finally arrived at the foot of the said bridge, and unfortunately had to give up, because this amount of steps for us was not really cope.

without using it, we made our way back into the city. The right bus stop, we found right away and then we headed straight back to the lower floors of Myer for there to provide us with a snack.

our prey (hearty stuffed crepes and fruit salad), we then let us taste the hotel room.

Nevertheless we could, of course, our free Appetizers and white wine can not escape and went later in the 24th Floor. There was such good snacks that we slammed again with sushi and Bruscetta. Actually, we wanted to go straight back to the room, as it waited two reports on us, said a German family to us and we got talking. After the long chat we found our room then not again until after 20:00 clock.

soon as we had the eyes, we would have liked it immediately made. Through a crack in the curtain, we looked out into the cloudy gray weather and rain were that it was actually a day you should spend in bed. But we have our free breakfast and of course, drove us out of bed.

We did a whole lot of time in the restaurant and eat Beate even had hash browns, because well-meaning Australians their urgency. Our new friend from the day before (the one with the sleeping pills) saved the last piece of hash browns for us and offered it to Miriam. With her selflessness they renounced to this charity (who wants to hash browns for breakfast!) Shortly before Beatrice was said Australians at the table and asked her the much-fought Rösti's nose. He emphasized again, would like these potatoes taste great and we were not to be mentioned that, this type of potato preparation really well . Know After all, we live almost in Switzerland. However, we like hash browns rather than at night in the morning.

went so well, it strengthened back into the room where we discussed how we would spend this rainy day at best. Outside, walk around was little point, we had already bought everything and we addressed ourselves again to our favorite task, namely the laundry. Our laundry is always valuable, because this is a washing machine costing AUS $ 9 charge and so we spent for washing and drying 36 AUS $. The whole laundry dragged on for hours, because only the washing machines were occupied, then the dryer and in the end we were late in Afternoon brought back online. We also had

, because the styling took some time to complete. Freshly pimped we first went into the lounge to take our free appetizers and then we went by bus on the way to the port in order to go to the famous Opera House.

We already had our first day the program viewed the opera house and found that the "Not New Years Eve Spectacular" is just right for us. When booking, we got a special low price and tickets in the 5th Series.

tension we marched towards the entrance and then were friendly from the staff through the backstage area with a lift to our Place accompanied. There, we looked first at the insane "Concert Hall" around and were impressed by the atmosphere.

A short time later, each of the 2679 slots are occupied, and soon entered the 100 members of the Sydney Choir "on stage. Then came the "Australian Philharmonic Orchestra with 60 musicians. The young conductor Benjamin Northey introduced himself and after a little interlude with the concert master, who lost his microphone directly to the overture and this delayed the start of the concert a bit, the orchestra began with the swinging "Can-Can".

loose just as the Aussies are nunmal, the conductor turned before simply the audience and told no mic that the concertmaster of the same accident had happened already in the matinee and that it would understand because he would play today after 30 years of orchestra membership the last concert.

An explosion of chasing the next. The program was very moody Donald Cannot. One of the best tenors of Australia, Roy Best sang, even the German operetta tune "Yours is my heart" and Sally Cooper, a violin virtuoso enchanted, all with their performances. The musical singer Marina Prior showed the wide range of its capabilities from "Phantom of the Opera" to jazz.

Cold shivers chased the other, especially when the 100-member choir with orchestra and soloists began. The whole idea was so overwhelming that it is definitely one of the highlights of our trip.

sounded the end of the famous and going to the heart of "Amazing Grace" with two bagpipers and even sang an encore from the audience with "Oh when the saints go marching in".

All actors and everyone involved was in the audience and distributed to all streamers were used. It was a great image to see the many colorful paper strips around the stage and in the packed auditorium.

still very moved by this beautiful evening, we headed towards the theater forecourt, where we have a great view of the harbor by night, the skyline and were especially illuminated Harbour Bridge and Opera House.

We could not even stop to shoot more, which we then almost fatal would become. The only lift in the opera house was in fact already stopped and a technician had to lift us to another in the outbuilding, so we came back down into the harbor.

As we are used as a long and deep artist, we left the opera house through the back entrance, which is actually reserved for the actors.

makes you happy and satisfied we are almost through the starry Sydney by bus on the way back to the hotel.

Get Wet When Go To Brazilian

27.12.09 Sydney

As already anticipated in the Internet, waiting for us once again a cloudy day, but it was above 20 ° C heat quite well. Went directly after breakfast it equal time in the city, which had also opened on Sunday all the shops more than 12 hours.

Miriam had tried the night before yet the red dancing dress that night we had bought for lunch in a small boutique. We found the dress so much, we jump on this morning shot in the store to the same fringe dress in to buy black and also two matching bolero jacket in the respective colors, so that we have the clothes can now be used for a formation . It sure sounds good, too, if we can tell before a performance, that we have flown in from Sydney especially the costumes ;-)

our new budget store is Woolworths and where we purchased the same few toiletries (we found this a really great Dove deodorant, it sure is now in Germany, but the main thing, we always have a supply of it) and a watch for Miriam.

During our shopping trip yesterday had only Mirjam found something, so we went today to look for a blouse for Beate they can attract New Year's Eve. But it went to the Myer department store, we also wanted to sift through absolutely still. After 10,000 steps and 200 felt ransacked coat stands Beate has finally been lucky and very happy we were on our way to the checkout.

There were only a few steps up to the hotel where we unloaded our new achievements, and then we walk on the way to the Sydney Wildlife World in Darling Harbour made. We got the same time a huge shock when we saw are the long lines in front of the aquarium next to the Wildlife Park. Thank God it was before the "World Wildlife" is not quite so full and so we got into it rather quickly.

Because our nice concierge David had given us two coupons for a koala photo, we shot right at all times by people on the koala enclosure. We could not really believe that we would get the photos for free, because the recordings were usually 20 AUS $ cost per picture, but we put time in the queue in front of the enclosure. As we take pictures

had to have time enough, the cute koalas from all sides. Particularly struck us was the little Fynn, who just turned 1 year old and well on his road climbed around.

The older gentlemen Koala sleeping in front of him, but they were soon merrily, for there was the second time that day fresh eucalyptus leaves to eat. Since we had a lot of luck, because the koala sleeps 20 hours a day and eat the remaining four hours he spends. The Koala is one not one of the bears, but to the marsupials. It is closely related to the Wombat and carries the bag on his back.

Soon we were allowed into the enclosure and each of us had to take pictures with Fynn, who did not keep you from eating. The photos were printed out for us and we did not believe it still, but we were actually free.

happy and satisfied with our photos in the hands we marched on to the kangaroos, we for the first time here in Australia saw alive (well, more or less alive, for they were rather lazy around in the area).

The big red kangaroo is the largest in Australia, jumping more than 9 meters and up to 50 km / h fast.

On our way through the warren of the Wildlife Park we met animals like

Bilbies
(in German bilby - a nearly extinct species, it Now today as Easter substitute in chocolate. The gestation period of Bilbies is only 14 days, then the boy 80 days in mother's pouch.)

Wombats
(one of the marsupials and, despite its compact body structure up to 40 km / h fast. They are but no flight animals but clog disappear at risk in their building and the entrance to her tight ass, that is so packed with cartilage and muscles that no attacker will get at them)

wallabies
(belonging to the family of kangaroos)

a Cassowary (helmet-cassowary)
(He is the second largest bird in the world and stands as the most dangerous bird in the world in the Guinness Book of Records, because he has attacked people displaced by the passage of the powerful legs died)

a Kookaburra (Laughing Jack)
has (its name from its unusual vocals)

various Gekko and other lizards ,

crocodiles
(The largest specimen that we saw in the park, was 5.5 meters long and 700 kg.)

toxic snakes (including the two most poisonous snake species in the world) and spiders and scorpions , ants, grasshoppers , butterflies,

bats; -)

and a "giant rhinoceros cockroach " (the largest cockroach in the world).

We were absolutely thrilled with this particular animal life that exist only in Australia. Above all, the great marsupials have inspired us.

went after a few hours in this wonderful park back to the hotel and on the way home we made a detour into the underworld of Sydney, namely the second basement of the department store Myer, where there are huge food temple that meet every taste.

We took some snacks with you overnight, and soon after it was already time for our evening cocktail in the lounge.

Back in the room we were able to build for the first time a Skype conference with parents, brother, niece and uncle of Beatrice and since has been cheerfully chatted with each other. At a late hour, we have put together the daily report and then were glad when we were tired at midnight visit our bed.

... anyway all the best for 2010.

is over now Another year and it was not as bad as we thought all of them. The consumption during the festive season is almost frightening, and one might think, next year is based on the world. Bankers write again juicy bonuses and our society snarled at a high level, because who does not own mobile phone, is one already for the poor in our latitude.

, what happened to only the times in which we not worked with all his might for more and even more, cost what it wanted and it was the friendship of the best friend. According to the motto: "I and then long nothing, and then eventually my friend. "Is there really still in times like these, an honest friend or partner? If we trust today its neighbors? there in times of prosperity nor understanding for each other or one is its own nearest and behind the flood?

times it really seems to be that the greed and envy our State controls, and this "new" features ziehmlich sure our planet into the abyss drives. Daily governed the dispute, the mistrust and resentment enjoy life. to Him in simple and genuine things we have forgotten.

Where is the crisis that makes us closer together again a little, which ensures that we are "less" satisfied? It sounds disastrous, but maybe we really deserve a "hearty slap" to get back with open eyes to go through life and to make the weights in the right light. Because I really feel that our society stupid on wealth - as hard as it may sound.

Maybe we should all - keep the action even really aware of what's going on around and above us all so - and not just for Christmas. Quick one or the other will have to realize that there are so really can not go on. In this sense I wish all our readers not a "successful" in 2010, but a let-us closer together-again-year, with less resentment and influenced each other with more understanding.

Happy New Year!

Best Travel Camera Case

26.12.09 Sydney

As you wake up misgives us, for that oh-so-summery Sydney was once again overcast. So we took our time to enjoy our hotel breakfast extensively.

then grabbed We us our rain jackets and made our way to the Rocks, "which is Sydney's historic center. This time we drove back bus, which we now manage all this and more. We even got off at the right station and marched through the said district.

We could not entirely convincing, and soon were on their way to port. Since we wanted to be smart and used a not quite official ramp that led to a steep staircase, so that we had used our imagination. Without further ado, pushed and pulled Miriam Beatrice on a steeply sloping lawn and we arrived safe and sound, contrary to expectations (although quite dirty) below on the trail to Port.

We shot a few photos of the Harbour Bridge and the Opera House (we have only about 100), when suddenly it began to rain heavily.

we were up in the rain jackets and had dug the hoods of the collar, we were already wet through and through. We ran to the bus station and found after several failed attempts, back then the right bus to the city.

We had thought that it might be better to run with this lousy weather through the shops. The night before, was already at the Myer department store (the largest department store in Australia) that on 26 had opened December from 5.00 bis 17.00 Clock clock.

We do not know whether we have already mentioned, but our Swissotel is located just above the seven floors of this store. As we came

back into the city, we could not believe our eyes: huge crowds pushed their way through the streets, cars clogged the city and in front of shops were long queues of waiting people. If Myer had security and police discourage people from storming the department store.

Smaller shops such as Gucci could only enter a limited number of buyers and Thus there is always long queues at the department store doors. We were amazed by this crazy spending spree and it was almost impossible to get by the hotel.

Then we left us still infected by this madness, because we thought there was something for nothing. Why else should hundreds of thousands of people move through Sydney? Gift purchase could not be, because Christmas was over, and until New Year's Eve there were a few more days. We were pushing them in any case very suspicious.

In a small shop (in which we came in without queuing) bought a cheap Mirjam fringe dress, we've built for future Tanzuftritte perhaps can use. Then it took us to "David Johnson, the great competition of the department store Myer, where we trawled through the three floors of ladies clothing to buy for a New Year's Eve Beate Blüschen. Miriam had looked again at the end of a shirt in the bag and beats in the tube. But we still have a few days until New Year's Eve and we are sure to find something else.

the way back to the hotel we took this time underground, and indeed found the "Food-Mart," which we had David, our concierge, already recommended. We all indulged a quiche and made our way back to the hotel - this time even getting wet.
Once there, we
devouring our delicious gifts. On the Internet we started smart, what happened to us was there today in Sydney. We read that the 26th December is here called "Boxing Day" and the highest sales day of the year. The stores already open at night and then are already queuing outside the door.

not just the cities are completely overwhelmed, but it will break even the websites of online stores together because of the great rush. The reason for this spectacle, that the department stores cut their prices radically and make everyone the best bargains will be.

Once we knew now what was going on, we made fresh for the visit to the lounge. There was quite busy and an Australian couple, who now lives in Macau and currently visiting relatives in the home is all the time talking with us. They gave us valuable tips on what to in and around Sydney can still do so all you which restaurants are cheap and good and also it will make us special sleeping pills come with which one supposedly completely relaxed the many flight hours can survive, we currently us (we are curious ;-)).

Time passed by quickly and when we return at 20.00 clock in the room were, we still had plenty of time to skype with Germany.
