Beer tasting experiences in the heart of the city

May 23rd 2008 12:19

Not everyone likes beer, but not everyone have tried boutique, or more artistically called 'craft' beer. Most beer haters I know love a small glass of boutique beer for their difference in taste and palate compared to the normal larger styles we get in pubs.

And just like wine - you don't know what you like until you've tried it. So here are some beer tasting experiences you can have in the heart of Sydney, and they really are, quite good

Fly across Sydney and view it from the top

May 19th 2008 06:44

I always enjoy landing in Sydney, being able to see the harbour from my window on the passenger plane and being able to really admire its beauty with the blue waters and the outline of the coast.

Sydney Writers' Festival (LINK)

May 6th 2008 04:58

It's here! The Sydney Writers' Festival is on again from 19 May to 25 May!

I always find the Writers' Festival a great inspiration to me. Two years ago I attended my first festival workshop with Claire Scobie on Travel Writing and that was the beginning of my writing career. I found her workshop very practical and involving, and it's always great to talk to like minded writers about things you write about and how you write

Dive with sharks!

April 30th 2008 01:12

It's gotta be the number 1 reason to visit Manly Ocean world. Its aquarium displays are not as great as the one at Sydney Aquarium, but it is one place in Sydney (besides getting out of the harbour) you can have a close shark encounter.

Sydney is the best city in the world!

April 17th 2008 05:38

As a local, I don't see why Sydney is any better than those culturally enriched cities in Europe, South East Asia and South America. However 10,000 readers of Conde Nast Traveler readers can't be wrong. They have voted Sydney to be the top travel destination in the world two years in a row.

It is "the cleanest (94.78) and most user-friendly (93.68) city abroad" according to their readers poll

It's the school holidays!!!!

April 13th 2008 06:26

Well, that time has come. The traffic will be lighter in the mornings, we will no longer be required to slow down to 40kmph and the teachers will finally get a break.

However it is now the parents suffer. There are now bored children expecting to be entertained, and many are out of ideas to keep them happy

News: camping on Cockatoo Island

April 8th 2008 05:09

A flip through the newspaper I saw an advertisement about Cockatoo Island - "Cockatoo Island Camping is now open!" it said, accompanied by a photo that looks more than an industrial island rather than a leisure island where camping would be a pleasure.

However, it's apparently Sydney's only central camping ground and is just eight minutes ferry from Circular Quay
