We visited Sydney Opera House (outside only) and walked around a bit of downtown Sydney, checking out chocolate stores, old shopping buildings, and whatnot. In the Queen Victoria Building, we visited Hobbyco, where Alex looked over the model train offerings.

Some museum options were limited by Monday hours, but Hyde Park Barracks, one of the Australia Convict Sites, was open, and I recommend it. We also visited the Maritime Museum, which I do not recommend.
