The exhibits are great, and it's laid out down the slope of a hill in a way that gives you great views of downtown and the rest of the harbor. A ferry over to Manly is also a nice afternoon trip. If you have a full day off, consider a rail trip up to the Blue Mountains. (Don't spend all your time at the conference---those things are supposed to be the leisure of the theory class!)

This will be the first time we are there and I was wondering if any LUGger could recommend things for us (2 thirty-somethings) to see or do. Unfortunately, I will be attending a conference during the day for most of the week, but we do have Sunday and perhaps an afternoon or two off to do some sight-seeing. I'll be toting my M's loaded with Kodachrome and some B&W film. I'm likely to bring a 35 Summilux, 50 Summicron DR and Skopar 25/4. Maybe a 90 Elmar or 90 Summicron if I can manage the space / weight. Who knows, perhaps we may even get to meet LUGgers while we're there :-) TIA Terence Singapore
