zoos?
I would check nature and the beach out!
If you get access to a car, cruise up the cost and stay in random towns along the coast. Go swimming, surfing, fishing daily. If you dont have a car, bus it!

Definitely go Scuba diving if you are certified.
Also an alternative to zoos could be spotlighting out west, see some kangaroos, wombats, koalas, Possums ect, in there natural environments.
Most of the Australia landscape is really stunning so I don’t think you will have any shortage of stuff to do.

Don't forget to visit Eastern Creek raceway in Sydney! Great way to check some aussie rotaries.
A boat cruise on Sydney harbour is a must.
Hire a convertible and do the Ocean road in Melbourne, one of Australia's best scenic drives.
Watch a game of Rugby League. Go the might Eels!
Don't watch any AFL games unless your

Now you are in Sydney. Then you have to do this.
If you are staying in the west, catch a "Rivercat" from PARRAMATTA to CIRCULAR QUAY. Then back
If you are in the City area (USA speak = down town) then catch the "Rivercat" from CIRCULAR QUAY to PARRAMATTA. Then back
The Rivercat is run by Sydney ferries & the ticket is like $6. You get a leisurely cruise down the harbour & along the "Parramatta river" to checkout the Sydney real estate, waterways & everything the harbour has to offer.
Many a tourist use the "Rivercat" as a cheap way to explore the waterways in Sydney.
If you like watching boofheads bang their heads together & get into some biffo. then watch a game of "Thugby league". If you preffer the original more civilised version, watch a game of Rugby.
Biggest ever attendence for a game of Rugby was 2001. Australia vs New Zealand = 113,000 at the Sydney Olympic stadium. What an electric match that was. Then there was the 2003 Australia vs England world cup final but changed seating allowed just under 100,000 at that one. Big numbers by Aussie standards but all exciting if your into that thing.
Find the rotary shops & go explore them too

Given the original date and subsequent one month + resurrection by ht, think he has been and gone.
