I am into food related things...

Do you have paint ball there?

I am not really into the whole bars thing since i don't drink anyway...

I have no idea even with melbourne; i am geographically disabled...

Theres paintball at Windsor, which is a pain in the ass to get to unless you can drive. Theres also another place at Rouse Hill (near blacktown) and another place towards Hornsby (i think).

Would you be driving? You really don't want to rely on our public transport system :p

I have forgotten the minimum - we did discuss it last semester at uni, but it was around 15 - 20 ppl (i think). But you needed to book it weeks in advance and also put down a $200 deposit.

Our public transport reliable?? Pfffft. Funniest thing I have heard all day :uhhuh:

Miss_b, it really depends on how much money you have to spend and how far from the city your willing to travel (assuming your going to Wynyard). Sydney is great in a sense that there is always something to do, and you dont need to spend alot of money to have a good time.

But the shopping is always good..... :D

+Po1ntDeXt3r+ There is a great indian place in mosman... cant remember the name :p I have only heard good things though :uhhuh:

There is the zoo and the aquarium lol.

Some of the food gems in Sydney (city) in suburbs such as Newtown, Glebe and Surry Hills.

You could go to Kings Cross and check out some of the bars there lol.

Bondi beach (even though it's winter)....

On a Saturday you could go to Glebe Pt Road Markets.

Or you could join the other tourists at Paddys Markets in Chinatown (like the markets in Melb (Queen Victoria Markets, that's right isn't it?) except paddys is kinda crappy)

Go for walks through the gardens, Mrs Macquaries Chair has a really great view of the opera house, bridge and the city.... it's in the botanic gardens.
