W: So the first leg is Sydney, Australia’s oldest city?
M: Oh, it’s absolutely more than that. They have sun-drenched beaches, dizzy high-rises, superb shopping, delicious and daring restaurants, friendly folk and everything! It’s the country’s capital in everything but name.
W: Sounds like a desirable place for a holiday.
M: Yes! We can spend our whole life there enjoying everything!
W: Everything?
M: Yes, everything! Bondi Beach, Chinese Garden of Friendship, Darling Harbour, Fort Denison, Islands on Port Jackson, Royal Botanic Gardens, Sydney Harbour Bridge, Watsons Bay Museums, and most of all, Sydney Opera House...everything!
W: Haha, I believe you’ve made a persuasive presentation. I’d love to visit Sydney Opera House...
M: Me too. And you know what? Sydney is comfortable to visit at any time of year. Autumn is delightful...
W: How about summer?
M: Oh, summer there is a humid raining season. But March and April are different! Clear, warm days and mild nights and all that...It’s said that Sydneyites enjoy well over 300 sunny days a year.
W: Um...good weather! So what we can do in such a good weather?
M: Everything! W: Everything, again?
M: Yes! You name it, they have it. Swimming, boating, surfing, diving, horse riding, golf, or just walking...
W: Haha, golf is for you.
M: Of course. And you can spend the whole holiday on the beach getting suntanned...
W: And I guess I can swim anywhere in Sydney...
M: Well, basically yes. There are more than 100 public swimming pools in Sydney. They love watersports! The Andrew "Boy" Charlton is especially good for a splashy romp; Camp Cove, Nielsen Park, Balmoral and Chinaman’s Beach for picturesque swimming; Bondi, Tamarama and Bronte for bodysurfing...
W: That’s for beach boys...
M: And more than 80 local golf courses for golf enthusiasts.
W: Don’t forget Sydney Opera House.
M: No way. And also Sydney Harbour Sunset Dinner Cruise. It’s an ideal pre-theatre venue, with a relaxed atmosphere, superb views and international dining...
W: Well!
M: And even more than that... we can have a seaplane tour of Sydney Harbour and surrounds, if you want.
W: It must be the most unforgettable way to get a birds-eye-view of Sydney...You’re so romantic!
M: It’s all from the air...the Sydney Harbour Bridge, the Opera House, the Taronga Zoo, and many of the secret coves and islands dotted throughout Port Jackson...
W: What about the performance in the Opera House?
M: Oh, how can I forget that? They offer Opera House Tours, Dinner and Performance Packages, Australian Ballet, Sydney Symphony Orchestra or Opera Australia.. .whatever you want.
W: Superb!
M: I believe the performance will complete your Starry Night experience. Moreover, you will receive an exclusive Sydney Opera House gift to take away as a souvenir. Surprise, surprise!
W: I just can’t wait to be there!
M: When we are there in April or May, we can join the Royal Easter Show, Hunter Valley Harvest Festival, Kings Cross Food and Wine Festival, Yalumba Thredbo Jazz Festival, Scone and Upper Hunter Horse Festival, and Jazz and Shiraz Food and Wine Festival...
W: Wow! There are so many festivals and events...But how about the accommodation?
M: White beaches, blue harbours, gilded lifestyles and lots of flesh... W: Well! Can we make a reservation now?
