Madame Tussards Sydney

This post is all about our trip to Madame Tussards Sydney. I know, i said i’ll blog about the Wild Life Zoo next in my earlier post on Sydney’s Sea Life Aquarium, but i totally forgot that we went Madame Tussauds before the zoo. So, i’m just gonna talk about Madam Tussauds first. If you know me, i’m more of a animal, marine life person or adventurous type of person. Thrill-seeking type if you need to label me. or nature-loving. I’l visit zoos, aquariums, do climbs, white-water rafting in a jiffy but museum sorta places, i’ll choose carefully and only do those that interests me.

so, Madame Tussauds isn’t really my kind of thing. it wasn’t on my to-do list in Sydney since i have been to the one in HK twice…but it was part of the Ultimate Sydney Pass and Cindy wanted to go (she’s hasn’t been to one before) so i agreed to accompany her. She has been great to me on the trip and accompanied me to so many of the attractions i wanted to go so i am very thankful to have a super nice and accommodating travel companion!

Besides, it was housed together with the Wild Life Zoo & the Sydney SeaLife Aquarium, making it really convenient for us to visit all 3 together.

I just had to meet the ‘love of my life’, right at the entrance!

Johnny Depp & Cherieladie - Madam Tussards

Cindy takes a picture with Johnny Depp too!

I wasn’t looking out for anyone in particular but i noted that there were quite a lot of wax figures on display that i have no idea who they were! i know right, i’m so off but i think there were quite a bit of australian sports stars and celebrities that i do not follow or know. Oops.

I took pictures of the more common ones and some that i have come across while touring sydney..

Wolverine wax figurine with Cindy
Wolverine! Totally rocked our socks.

iron man & cherieladie
Iron Man. Errm, honestly, i wondered why he is included as one of the exhibits because he obviously is all iron-clad!

lady gaga & cherie
Lady Gaga! I really liked this one. and i dunno why my pose in pictures are all crap and silly looking!

Audrey Hepburn & Cindy
Audrey Hepburn. She was Cindy’s favourite!

E.T. & Cindy
E.T goes home…….. I loved that we were touching fingers for this shot (my idea). Haha!

we had a lot of fun goofing around the various figurines and had quite a lot of fun.. Judging from the crowd on the day we went, Madame Tussauds is really a popular place to visit. I was quite surprised to catch a few figurines that i hadnt expected to see, and E.T was one of them! Indeed a pleasant surprise.

Cindy & me really had quite a lot of fun here and it made our Ultimate Sdyney Pass really worth our buck.

Stay tuned for more of my travelling posts on Sydney. It’s a long trip and i’m still stuck at Day 4 for now!

Hi there! Thanks for popping by. I'm Cherie, a ftwm (full-time working mum) to 3 lovely kids (2 boys & a princess) and my motto in life is to BE HAPPY. Sure, life isn't all that smooth but it's the mentality that counts, no? This blog documents my life. Or rather, snippets of my life that has passed me by. I love capturing life memories in the blog and being able to read back and laugh at myself (or anyone). I love to eat (A LOT), travel and paint my own nails so the blog is mostly about that. Is that considered lifestyle? Of cos, the family is also very much an integral part of me so there would be loads of memories about the husband and my kids - Jerry (9yo), Jerome (7yo) and Leia (2.5yo) and everyone else that's close to me. I like documenting the kids' milestones, their growing up years, their achievements (and sometimes, mine), and my struggles and battles with motherhood. It sure ain't easy. I love seeking out good food and travelling, is trigger-happy, love new gadgets, love exploring new places and strives to live life to the fullest. I aspire to travel the world as much as I can, to soak in the different sights across the various continents and visit all the Disneylands in the world (almost there!). Have fun reading and do drop me a comment to say hi! Love, Cherie Lim Find me on Instagram.
