We left Oso Blanco safely tucked in near Brisbane a couple of weeks ago and flew south to Sydney to explore southeast Australia. Staying right in the heart of Sydney, we enjoyed all the city had to offer: museums, the Opera House, harbor ferry cruises, and great restaurants. Sydney was surprisingly smaller than I had envisioned and easy to navigate. The public transportation is superb and inexpensive, offering a tour of the city and harbors (via ferries) at a reasonable cost. Most tourist areas were overpriced (per usual) but many museums were free and inviting on rainy days (which were all of our days in the city!). Overall, we ranked Sydney high on the list of very cool cities to visit.
