Two great cities to travel in Australia
by asitrav
The sight of Sydney Opera House would make one falls in love with the city. With the cool breeze from the bay, one would enjoy strolling at leisure in the area. Try to stay in King Cross area where there are a lot of excitements. In Melbourne, the Fitzroy Garden is a beautiful place to relax. Take the tram to go around the city. Shops generally close early in the evening. So, shop for souviners early in the daytime. The stunning view along the Great Ocean Road near Melbourne like the Twelve Apostles, Loch Ard Gorge and London Bridge.

miepmiep........Bondi Beach is one of Australia's most famous beaches and among the world's most well-known beaches. It is located in the Municipality of Waverley in east Sydney. The beach, roughly a kilometre long, is enclosed at the north and south by headlands. Every day of the year lifeguards patrol the beach between the yellow and red flags.
Take a stroll along the beachside promenade, along with dogs with style and babies with attitude. Away from the beach there are numerous cafes and restaurants, as well as hostels, hotels, a great variety of shops, and even a small golf course
Men & Their Games - Chess in Hyde Park
by aussiedoug
Over the last couple of months I've been into town often enough & past this spot right in front of Bar Quattro going into Hyde Park to know that this Chess playing takes place all day.
It not only takes place on this large board painted on the concrete, but also on normal sized boards on various tables & even garden benches/seats that are nearby during the busiest time just either side of lunch time.
It is around this time that the crowd is also at its peak as workers from nearby offices & businesses come into Hyde Park to have their lunch & get outside.
So if you come to Sydney and fancy a game of Chess then get yourself up to Hyde Park as it seems that anyone can join in.
And like me, feel free to have either a coffee or lunch or brekkie at one of my Sydney faves Bar Quattro where I get the chance to practice my Itlalian. Ciao!
You can find them on the Elizabeth Street side of Hyde Park just opposite the David Jones Store that fronts it & right behind St James Station & Bar Quattro Cafe which is at the back & front left hand side of St James Station.
Sleep Aids
by cjg1
For long flights over 8 hours we like to take a sleeping pill (Ambien) to ensure we get a good eight hours of sleep. It's a great way to get the rest needed to land refereshed in your destination.
