The 4P is not your typical 4P , but if I was choosing between Westin and Sheraton , I would pick Westin , to me it has a better location
you are closer to Darling Harbour and Circular Quay than the Sheraton.

It seems like the difference in distance to Darling Harbour is only about a block or two. How do the rooms at the Westin and Sheraton compare?

In other news, I've settled on a steak prep. I'm going with Emeril's Marinating Flank Steak prep, except applied to stir fry strips.

In a nutshell, it's jalapenos, garlic, onion, tomatoes, cilantro, lemon, lime, and olive oil put into a food processor and reduced to something that approaches the look of baby flu puke, but tastes much better. I have to go check the fridge for stuff and get it made, since I'm aiming for a ~7pm-ish service.

Yes it has , LOL
I just want to see the :rolleyes: logo you selected , I can give you the one I have If you need it .

The logo I selected? :rolleyes: No, really: :rolleyes: - I just used the emoticon. If I should be using something bigger, please advise. I have to check the size and pixel limits that Titleist sets.

Back from my Dunkin run. I asked for an XL coffee with cream and two Splenda. They forgot the cream. :rolleyes:

It depends , some Sheraton rooms have great views of SYD and the park
while the Westin Tower Rooms are great also and have a newer feel to them.
I think people prefer the Sheraton because it has a lounge .
You probably can't go wrong with either.

and you are right about the distances , it is only a few blocks .

I also suggest you take the Bondi Explorer Hop On Hop Off bus .

That may be way too small , I can resize the logo to any specs that the ball requires.

Week 14 of checking reward availability on KE has paid off! While there are still a few small changes I'd like to make, we finally have most of our preferred flights. I was able to change the return routing to BKK-ICN-LAX on KE and LAX-JFK on DL. Surprisingly, they had 2 seats up front on the LAX-JFK segment as well. ^

Is that lower than normal for that runway? I love the video somewhere on there where the engines of a plane rev up for take off and the people watching get blown into the water.
