Sydney vacation

It's hard to complete the must-see itinerary of Sydney, a vibrant city that offers magnificent harbour, beaches, architectural as well as cultural highlights. Even more so with a kid. (Do anyone of you know a kid who will stick to a tightly arranged itinerary?)

That doesn't seem to matter for our family. We used to be parents who try not to overbook and overschedule. We learn this richest of lessons from our daughter who always looks the liveliest when she is given ample breaks and spontaneity.

It's no wonder that we slept in today, our second day of Sydney trip. Lazing on the road is part of the kid's birthright and one that's freely available to anyone of us. We ended up visiting the Art Gallery of New South Wales (which has free entrance, too). With so many entertaining works on display and the gallery's excellent cafĂ©, we stayed there till the closing hour.

I count that one of the richest travel activities.
