Sometimes we tend to neglect what's in our own backyard, particularly if it's a popular destination for other tourists. So i decided to come up with a Sydney Bucket List for me to try and tick off over the next year. Some I've done before, others I had never heard of until recently and I'm sure my list will grow quicker than I can tick items off.

What else should be on my Sydney bucket list?
What are some of your favourite things to do/see/eat in your local town?
Have you ever climbed the bridge there? I'm blanking on the name but I learned that you could do it from an American tv program in which the family traveled to Australia. It looked amazing!
ReplyDeleteI love anything with food and history...I loved the food tour I did last summer (visiting different spots in a neighborhood).
The Sydney Harbour Bridge climb is spectacular but expensive and books out quick, you can walk over the bridge for free and choose the day (and hopefully the weather). There are a lot of places to eat around town so a food tour should definitely be on the list, just have to pick the cuisine!
