I have been in Sydney for a bit over a week now and spent the first few days hanging out in downtown Sydney walking around. I made it to the botanical gardens and a few other touristy attractions. When I arrived i was somewhat surprised at the number of "backpackers" here who brought more shoes with them than I own and whose luggage was roughly the same size as the person carrying it.

After a couple days surrounded by skyscrapers I took the ferry up to Manly and enjoyed the time I spent up there and so the following day I packed and moved up. Since then I have been cooking, body surfing, playing beach volleyball and chess.
