This year we have been thinking to go to Mrs Macquarie’s Chair, Sydney to see
the firework. Apparently this spot is the most popular to watch the firework
and crowds camped from Friday evening (30th
of jan 2011) to score the best spots.
Firstly we’re a bit concerned
of the transport. My sister dropped us in Domayne, and she parked her car in
this private carpark building for only $10 (which is a bargain, as the building
next door charge $25).
After she dropped us off in
Domayne, we have to queued for about 45 mins - 1 hour under the sun. The queue is
quit slow (but gradually moving) as they security checked each person’s bag to
make sure no one bring opened bottled drink, or alcohol (there’s an alcohol
ban). It can a be daunting task to queu for that long under the heat
& in the same time bringing all your picnic gears; tents, food, drink etc.
As it’s 5 of us we took turn on who should be in queue. Mum waited comfortably
in one spot near the entrance with most of our belonging, so it wasn’t too bad.
As we entered the park, we’re
glad that they sell cappuccinos, ice cream, hotdogs, burgers, softdrink, and
alcohol inside (if only we knew earlier, we won’t bring too many mineral water
bottled). Anyhow the firework show definitely worth waiting!!!
