As an engineeer afficionado i'm always on the look out for science-related museums when i'm away to drag the kids to so I can go. This was great, so many different things to see, and loads to join in with, ahem for the kids to join in with!

Museum of Contemporary Art

I'd imagines Aussies would be too busy outside to worry about having great art galleries, but I had such a lovely afternoon here! A wide ranging and interesting collection with more than a few challenging pieces, definitely go in if you're at circular Quay.

Royal Botanic Gardens

My wife and I really enjoyed it here, such a lovely place, great plants and the view from Mrs Macquarie's Chair is amazing, I could have sat there most of the day. The best bits of the Gardens were the rainforest and the cactuses.
