Arrived in Sydney bright and early Sunday morning. The flight was uneventful. But note to self: try to remember that "exit rows" in 747s pretty much suck. I had the pod that holds emergency evac slide right in front of me. We had an abbreviated overhead storage and zero under seat storage as we faced the big door and a crew jumpseat. The only positive was unlimited leg room if I angled out past the slide. My other alternative was a middle so this was better.
After getting settled in the hotel (out in the boonies) and meeting up with one of my coworkers, we headed into town to mostly kill some time. Wandered about Circular Quay and The Rocks. There was a big street market going on in the Rocks. After a couple of beers there we decided to do a ferry ride to somewhere. Decided to go out to the Taronga Zoo.
We took the train over to Town Hall and walked to Darling Harbour. It was starting to rain a bit and had gotten a bit cooler. Dinner at Nick's on Darling Harbour was very good. Back at the hotel about 8. By 9pm I was crashing. Lots to do for work but still got time.
