So what’s there to do in Sydney?

September 15, 2007 by Jen at Semantically driven

I’m going to be in Sydney in two weeks time – yee hah! I’ll be busy at the Web Directions conference for two days but will have Saturday all to myself. I’m staying near Darling Harbour so will undoubtedly do some touristy things but I’m wondering what else there is to do and/or see.

I like shopping, and because I’ll be somewhere other than Adelaide will be looking for the types of things that can’t be found in Adelaide. Last time I was in Sydney I went to the Glebe markets, so are there any other types of cool markets that I should know about?

Are there any other Sydney things to do that aren’t in touristy websites? I’d love word of mouth recommendations please.

    For WDS07 social activities see http://wds-social.pbwiki.com/FrontPage

    A bunch of Perth people are looking at organising a geek shopping expedition on Saturday to Paddington Markets and/or Newtown.

    The last one a couple years back was very successful with a haul that included paintings, a metal sculpture and lots of clothes, shoes and accessories. As well as visiting bookstores, record shops and cafes.

    Hopefully see you at the Sydney Port80 meet on Wednesday night.

    Hi,

    pity you aren’t in Sydney for Web Directions early (i.e. next weekend 22-23 Sept) – you could come to the Oz-IA 2007 Conference at the Mercure on Broadway – I’m not presenting this year so it should be good 🙂

    If interested – details at http://oz-ia.org

    Cheers, Andrew
