Things we did not . . .
Hi, everybody. Here are some places I did not go, things I did not do, and things I did not buy: GO - Chinatown, Chinese Garden of Friendship, Sydney Fish Market, Star City Casino, harbour cruise, bush walk north of town, nude or partly nude beaches, Aboriginal Art venues (several of these), Justice and Peace Museum, Museum of Sydney, Ocean World (you can swim with sharks there), Sydney Aquarium. . .DO - attend any plays, operas, concerts, street fairs, kite days at Bondi beach, revisit King Street, hike on the beach at night, listen to the radio (we saw quite a bit of Australian Football on TV and watched part of the New Zealand All Blacks win a rugby game over their Australian counterparts), play any CDs (I bought one). . . BUY - clothes (I got one t-shirt with aboriginal art on it), (not very many) books, opals, diamonds, other jewelery, authentic Aboriginal art, shoes, boots, short pants, fancy backpack (got one for me for $30.00 Au), hiking or camping gear, a meal with kangaroo meat, fancy Swedish ice cream at $5.00 a pop (we did find a Baskins-Robins outlet and ate some of that, and I spotted a Krispy Cream franchise at the airport but alas, alack could not locate one in the departure area), silly or cute or funny postcards, table mats, table runners, exhibition catalogs (just one), hats (I got a new cap to replace my favorite, but somewhat bedraggled one), soap, toothpaste, (just a little chocolate to tide us over), etc... What kind of things have you not done, seen, bought in your travels. So far I have no regrets about what we did not. . . hope the same for you. Sincerely, Manford
