    Art Gallery of NSW is always at the top of my recommendation list to my overseas friends too. Having frequented its special exhibitions, I gradually developed my own way of art critique in the form of poems, which really helps me nowadays when I write historical fictions based on my annual trips to European museums, palaces and art galleries. Also my personal secret spot (which is not the secret garden) is the Conservatorium of Music (affiliated to the University of Sydney), which is about 10 minutes' walk from the Opera House and surrounded by the Royal Botanical Garden. I used to sneak into the Con to practise piano there after work (being an amateur pianist and paraprofessional violinist), and even dated there once. Back then I wasn't a USyd student yet, and was kicked out by security guard once, when he overheard me playing Fur Elise way too fast.

We didnt realise how isolated the hotel was when we booked and that if catching public transport in sydney cbd, circular quay, darling harbour that we would need to take a 30 min trip with two forms of transport, either train and bus or ferry and bus. hopefully it wont be too difficult and tiring for us to get around :)
