-Take a ferry to Watson's Bay and eat at Doyle's.<BR>-Ride the train/bus and visit Bondi Beach.<BR>-Take in a concert/opera/play at the Opera House (best seats cost US $25!)<BR>-Visit the shops at the Queen Victoria Building and marvel at the architecture.<BR>-Eat lunch at one of the many small restaurants and order a kebab.<BR>-Stop in for a brew at a pub in The Rocks and talk to the locals._<BR>-Do lots of walking downtown and try to shed some of the weight you will gain on that cruise!

Opera House $25.00 each. How do I go about getting tixs? I would love to do that

LizF Jan 10th, 2002 11:32 AM

The Opera House has their own web site and you can check out what will be on and book from that<BR>If you want to do a search and it doesn't come up on your usual engine then log onto Web Wombat and do a search within that - its an Australian site.

Got tixs to see Bugs Bunny on Broadway. What a riot... Thanks for the idea. Does anyone know the dress attire?

I'm sure smart casual attire will be appropriate.<BR><BR>I found this site with lots of links to Sydney attractions:<BR><BR>www.bbsydneyharbour.com.au/html/attractions.html<BR><BR>Enjoy your stay here.<BR><BR>

Thanks for all the help. Now you all can help me pick a restaurant before seeing the show. What's your favorite near the Opera House and why?
