We will be leaving Sydney this afternoon for Melbourne. We have done and seen so much in the past 4 days or so, but we will be happy to be moving on. Sydney is just another big city - we really could be just about anywhere in the world as there is such an international mix of people here and on some days you are hard pressed to hear an Aussie accent. In Melbourne we are planning on spending 2 nights in the city before finally renting a car to see some of the countryside - something we are all very much loking forward to.
Some of the highlights here in Sydney have been th zoo, the aquarium, the ferry rise to Manly beach (and Manly itself!) and the great hostels we have been staying in. Denver and I were both a little surprised at the quality of the accomodations - they are really just budget hotels with communal kitchens and common areas for watching t.v. etc. The one we have been in for the past 2 nights even has an "all you can eat" breakfast which we have been taking full advantage of! : )

Sounds like you are having a good time! But I agree you need to get out and see what Australia is really all about, watch out for all the rabbits!
On another note, you now have a huge hole beside you. They have dug and I think the foundation is being poured today from the looks of it as the cement truck was there this morning.
Happy trails and hope you are all enjoying yourselves. Stuart misses Oliver!
