SYDNEY - BLUE MOUNTAINS - BRISBANE - FRASER ISLAND
SYDNEY-Where to start. I've been enjoying Sydney for almost one full week. What a beautiful city. I could probably spend my entire vacation here. Sydney has one of the most beautiful harbors in the world. The hostel that I am staying in, EVA's Backpackers is located in Kings Cross area, one of the best hostel I've been to. It has an open kitchen, free internet and a fabulous view of downtown. King's Cross has for a long time been known as a red light capital of Australia. In recent years, I have learned that this area turned into a vibrant part of the city with many tourist accommodations . There are many strip clubs, adult bookshops, tacky nightclubs as well as trendy cafes and restaurants.
On my first day here in Sydney, I walked out of the hostel and walked up to the main street. I felt like smoking a cigar so I entered the tobacco shop hoping to find a nice COHIBA to celebrate my first day on the smallest continent. Then I hear a familiar language, of course the ladies working in the shop, Milena and Vesna, have recently immigrated to Australia. I stayed chatting with the ladies for an hour and then went down the street to get some chevapchici! OK, so this is kind of weird.?!? After dinner I went back to the hostel and had few drinks with other world travelers.

Next morning I went to visit my father's side relatives about one hour west of Sydney, suburbs of Liverpool. I took a train from Kings Cross and arrived to Cammbramatta station where my family was waiting for me. I had some great home-made food including some chicken noodle soup, baked potatoes, then some lamb and pork roast(pecenje) and a wonderful home-made cake for desert. The following day I fueled up with ham and eggs for breakfast back at Kings Cross and shortly there after I was on Sydney Express, the tour bus that almost every big city has. Hint-this might be a good business for big cities in former Yugoslavia. Anyway, I stepped out of the bus in Sydney Chinatown and a delicious Fish Teryaki for lunch. My next stop was the famous Sydney Opera House. Wow, whatta structure. I've got inspired and spent few hours up-close-and-personal taking hundred of black and white shots which you can see on my photography blog.
