Sydney Trip 2012 | Catching Up With Blogger & High School Friends!

Last weekend, I took advantage of the Queen's birthday long weekend and organised a trip to Sydney with my friend Evelyn. It was a spontaneous little trip away from our usual city, Melbourne.
MEL > SYD ♥
Our short 4 days, 3 nights trip consisted of plans to meet our high school friend Jess, who'd moved to Sydney 3 months ago and to meet my gorgeous Sydney blogger friends Jeanice, Janice, Adeline and their friends. I also got to meet food blogger, Brad who happened to be visiting Sydney from Singapore ~ Thanks to blogging, I've met so many great people who I otherwise wouldn't have been able to meet.

Friends since high school :) It was so lovely to be able to catch up with Jess again after not seeing her for so long. She ended up staying with Evelyn and myself for two nights! We all got ready together to meet the rest of the girls and Brad at PrimeGPO for some good steak and IVY bar afterwards.

With gorgeous Joanna, Katherine and Janice (photo credit: Katherine) - At Ivy. It was such a fancy venue!

Glebe Markets ♪ Spot Evelyn! She looks so cute there hehe.
I picked up a skirt and some cute earrings from the market~ I will make a separate post about that later on.
There was a beautiful wedding taking place in the far building - gorgeous day and location!

This looks like it turned out to be more of a food trip haha. I should consider becoming a food blogger with the amount I eat! 

Saying goodbye to Jeanice. Thanks for staying out even though you had plans early the next morning! x

On our last day, Eve, Jess, Brad & I made our way to the Sydney Fish Market to devour into the most fresh and delicious seafood!
The seafood pics are featured in the food collage in the above photos!

  8. I feel the same when I get to meet up/catch up with lovely blogger friends :D Happy to hear you got to and from Sydney safely and that you have a great time! I love shopping at markets, they have such unique items which you can't always find in the normal retail stores! Most are handmade too ^_^ We should catch up soon though! Haven't seen you in yonks and since its winter again, that means our hot chocolate is totally in season! LOL <3
