BASS Easter Holiday Road Trip

Assalamualaikum and ni hao peeps, :D

Anyone up for a road trip this Easter break? We’re planning a 2 days trip to Hunter Valley and Port Stephens which is located north of Sydney. The purpose of this trip is to relax, sightseeing, enjoy the view at these two locations and explore new places. We would also be stopping at some suburbs in Sydney such as Bankstown, Lakemba and Homebush.

Hunter Valley (mostly sightseeing):

• Valleys, mountains and vineyards
• Famous for its award-winning wines and historic towns

Port Stephens (Dolphin watching/Sea Cruise/Sand-boarding):

• Famous with nature, aquatic and land activities
• Sand boarding and sand dunes

• Unspoilt national park.. scenary, good for camwhoring (e.g chee hwa:p)
