Been loving the sunny weather over the last little while. Early mornings are beautiful for a bike ride. Hope this weekend isn't too miserable with this rain forecast.
On another note, I'm really disappointed with the airtrain service. I fly regularly for work, yet am pretty much forced into driving to the airport. 25min drive VS 1.5hr for bus and airtrain. They need more regular services and trains on most lines to link up easily and timely.
The amount of cars parked at the airport these days is utterly ridiculous. It's expensive too. Sydney have done it right.
Not to mention the price. It's literally 44 times as expensive to go from Central to the airport as it is to get to Central from Varsity Lakes on the Gold Coast or Nambour on the Sunshine Coast.
Agree it is a bit overpriced, although the train from Mascot to Sydney is also about $20 one way. It also beats paying 180/week in ParkLong.
Uber is $55, but that's if you can get one early on a weekday. My success rate isn't good.
