the weekend of me.

in honour of my birthday this week, saturday was declared the day of shan.

it started with two hours of my current addiction, civilization iv. (no, really. we set alarms and everything.) then a trip to adriano zumbo’s patisserie for macarons. i’ve never watched masterchef, but i figured that the number of people raving about his macarons can’t be wrong. it took about an hour all up, from the time we joined the rather long queue to the time we walked out of his tiny little store, but i think it was worth it. it’s certainly not something i’d be keen on doing regularly, though.

next stop: sydney aquarium! i had a free double pass, so thought the day of shan was the perfect opportunity for it.
