This morning Saturday 22nd went to gym with Bianca and Debbie and ran 1.47 miles. Aim to book bridge climb today Bianca did online but me and debbie decided to book in store since off to shop. So first stop at darling harbour was ATS to book bridge climb went for 5th January at 7.55pm as decided on night time as done day before and twilight about $100 more than night one. Then was time to go to Madame Tussaud's first we got to meet historical greats where you got to navigate the sea wearing a sailors hat with captain cook. Got to meet Ned Kelly who was an Irish Australian bushranger, Debbie had picture with sister Mary Mackillop a Australian Roman Catholic nun. Then off to the leaders zone to give an on screen speech beside Julia Gillard, pose with Barack Obama in the Oval office and hear the royal fanfare as I sat with the Queen. Off to the sports zone next to stand on the Olympic podium with Dawn Fraser and debbie to see the cameras flash whilst holding a winning medal. Then off to pose with Shane Warne for dad and got to dress up in all the cricket equipment was quite fun, really wanted to sit in golf buggy but kid not moving. It was then off to be a pink lady in the shake shack with sandy from the musical Greece, saw Rihanna, Keith Urban and Kylie. Could pretend to do the moonwalk but just posed with Michael Jackson and got to show my music talent by playing the drums with Jimmy Barnes.
It was then off to get abit of culture by testing our science knowledge with Albert Einstein but decided against been patient for Victor Chang. Next was TV section where got to be interviewed by Oprah and got to meet the famous Australian soap stars Alf Stewart on Home & Away and Harold Bishop from Neighbours. It was then to meet iconic film stars in a movie themed studio got to sit with Audrey Hepburn having breakfast at tiffany's. Pose with Paul Hogan a.k.a Crocodile Dundee in front of a live movie camera and also got to meet great movie characters such as Wolverine and Iron Man plus lots lots more! My favourite character had to be E.T. where I got to take Elliott's place in the scene that saw E.T. and Elliott soaring on a BMX against the stunning backdrop of the moon. It was then to walk through the A list corridor to be greeted by Nicole Kidman and Leonardo Di Caprio before moving into the A list zone. Where I got to have Christmas with Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt then to jump on stage with Lady Gaga. The journey had then come to an end and time to get picture as had to get my favourite ones E.T and Michael Jackson.
It was then to find somewhere to eat but not sure what we wanted walked up to Darling Quarter but then ended up going to Waterfront at Harbourside, Darling Harbour. The Waterfront Grill offers a relaxed environment where you can sit back and enjoy everything that Sydney has to offer. I wasn't really sure what I fancied so had a beef noodle salad which wasn't really a salad at all as had no lettuce was replaced by the noodles. Also had to have a glass of oyster bay wine as was happy hour and then had a banana spilt for old times but wasn't as good as I remember but did have when I was younger. When went to pay charged us normal price for wine as said was only house wine but said it didn't state it on sign so got for happy hour price of $4. It was then off to the Rocks to book our fortune teller at Argyle Oracle for tomorrow as was no space for today's a shutting shortly. We then went to Opera Bar for more drinks tried the other cocktail jug 'Pimms Twist' which was Pimms, Limoncello, Prosecco, cucumber, mint, summer fruit and topped with lemonade. I liked it but Debbie wasn't that keen on it said preferred the other one with vodka and apple juice so she only had one glass and had rest of the Pimms twist, then was off home.
