New Year’s Eve in Sydney

*** SYD NYE ***

Semmy and I had always dreamed of spending New Year’s in Sydney and being among the First Nations to celebrate the upcoming year. For both of us this dream came true today! Spending it here together during our big trip makes it even more special. 🙏🏻🤩

Our early morning flight from Perth to Sydney with Virgin was super cool as we were having a lot of fun with the flight attendants who were heavily covered with glitter all over. Even the plane interior had been decorated with lametta. 😂

And we had a free seat in our row for some extra room. 🙌

After a short 4,5h flight to the east coast we headed to our Hotel (Veriu Green Square) to shower and get dressed for the night. At 8pm we arrived at the Royal Botanic Garden where we had booked a Picnic 🧺 for the night. The food was really good and with a few drinks we quickly got into party mode.

From where we sat we had a good view on the famous Harbour Bridge where most of the fireworks were being launched from. At 9pm a pre-new year’s firework show was held so that small children could also enjoy the evening before then going to bed. The grand finale then happened at 00:00 after an exciting count down. It was the best firework ever. 🎆

Happy New Year! 🍀Read more
