Canberra Trip
I just came back from my one day tour to Canberra for the floriade tulip festival as you can see the detail from my previous post. I thought its gonna be a bit cold and raining there according to the weather forecast, but it was very hot when i get there and very sunny. 30 degree celcius there, and i’m wearing black shirt with black pants. I was like.. feel burning there, and i didnt use any sunscreen lotion as well because i really think thats its gonna be raining and windy there. Well….that prove that we can’t really trust the weather forecast.
I arrived at the meeting point in front of avilion hotel sydney around 7.25am. I thought the bus is just a small bus, but apparently its a big buss, and it is a new one. the tour is fully booked , and its around 80 people are on that buss. So lucky me because i can enjoy the new buss. There are 2 tour guides, one is Thai and the other one is Japanese. But the driver is Aussie though. All of them are very friendly.
We left from Sydney at 7.30 am, then approximately at 9.30 we stop at McDonald Sutton forest for 30 minutes for our morning tea break. Around 12 am we arrive at the floriade festival at commonwealth park. We stay there around 2.5 hrs and then we drive pass the foreign embassies and visit the new parliament house. We stay there for 50 minutes then went to the Australian War memorial. at 4.30 we head back to Sydney, and at 8.30 we arrive at Sydney.
The floriade actually is not really good as i thought, but if you never been there before, you should go there for your once in a life time experience. I’m pretty satisfied with the tour service and might use them again in my next trip.
