There’s a lovely hike near Hornsby light house / captain cook’s landing place(forgetting which exactly now)

Thanks, added to the list

With 10 days, you have plenty of time to go do short excursions elsewhere: esp. Ayer’s Rock and Cairns (Great Barrier Reef)

If you don’t mind heights, the Sydney Harbour Bridge Climb is supposed to be awesome! I ran out of money to do it when I went in college but I’ll be back to do it one day!
Sydney is filled with a lot of fun bars and restaurants so do research on what you like beforehand. Also quite a few museums and tours. I enjoyed the ship museum tour, the barracks tour, and the botanical gardens. Obviously the opera house. I would suggest a dinner cruise or boat ride around the harbor.
Check out Bondi Beach and Manly Beach, and the Blue Mountains. If you have budget to travel within Australia, I’d say Cairns is a fun little area and you can see the Great Barrier Reef and do more outdoorsy activities.
Melbourne is also great if you decide to do a few days in different cities.
Have fun!

I’m absolutely terrified of heights. Hi I will still do it 🙌🏾 thanks for the suggestions

Anyone have three kids and working in big law? I just found out I’m pregnant with no. 3 and it’s been a lot trying to juggle morning sickness, but based on my experience, I know this is only the tip of the iceberg of what’s to come. My husband and I are elated, but the anxiety of being a mom of 3 kids and working in big law is preventing me from truly enjoying this news. It would be good to know what it’s really like having 3 kids so that I can evaluate how long I really have left in big law.

Update on my boss-adjacent, hot F Director who made the “tied down” comment/hint/signal/joke - she scheduled a “work dinner” at 6:30pm today for me and her to chat about the strat deck I’ve built as a follow up from yesterday’s meeting. Anyone think she saw me blush lightly at her comment yesterday and she’s making a move, or is this strictly work related?
