California Girls Head Down Under - Australia and New Zealand

So, it has been awhile since I last posted anything.  I am back and inspired.  Three of us traveled from Los Angeles to Australia and New Zealand.  We got a fantastic price on airfare because we were willing to have a layover in Fiji.  I recommend Fiji Airlines, it was a very nice flight with very caring flight attendants.  We were able to get a fair amount of sleep on the plane, so we hit Sydney with a lot of energy.

Our accommodations were also very nice but not pricey.  The Maisonette Hotel, Challis Avenue.

The location of the hotel was perfect for us.  Down one short block and a flight of stairs and we were at the bayside.  Across the street from a famous Meat Pie place - Harry's Cafe de Wheels.  The other great thing about the location of the hotel was the proximity to the Hop-on Hop-off buses.  The bus stop was three short blocks up the street, very convenient.  Walking to the Hop-on Hop-off bus stop we noticed a grocery store, which as it turned out was where we purchased rolls and cheese for our first night dinner in Sydney.  Yum!!

More fun info to come!!!  But that's all for now!!
