After a very long flight and crossing three time zones we reached Sydney. It took us 1 and half hours to clear out from the airport after depositing a packet of lentils, 2 packets of popcorn and a cockroach from Shilpi’s bag!
Vonnie (Von or Yvonne) and Sandesh came to pick us up from the airport. They took us to the China town here, which reminded me the China town back home in Calcutta. Vonnie ordered some Noodle soup and Congee. Congee is a crispy fried batter which you break into the rice and noodles porridge. Though it was less spicy for the Indian palate, it tasted great with the traditional Chinese jasmine tea! We headed home after a late dinner and called it quits as tomorrow would be the first day at office.
P.S: First one to comment on my own blog, the pic is of a sea gull. They look beautiful, but they chase you like crows if you have food!!
