Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. You're near the foot of some big hills. They might be mountains, in fact, but from where you are it's hard to tell. There's a train station nearby, but no flightless birds, which might seem odd.
2. Near where you're standing there is a crowd of people watching a street performer. There are number of wharves nearby, in which some ferries are waiting for passengers. An unusual but beautiful building can be seen not too far away, and a large bridge.
3. There are sand dunes around you. You can make out what looks like an oil refinery about one kilometre away. Then, if you turn to your left you can see a large bay.
4. You're in a CBD, but it's not Sydney City CBD. You're standing at a junction of the nation's major highway, the suburb's main street and another, smaller street. There's a post office on one corner. On another corner some escalators are going down to a shopping centre and train station. Where are you?
5. Are you hungry? If so, you'll be happy here. There are more than a hundred restaurants and cafes on the main street of this place. Some 'alternative' people are walking about. You also see some yuppies. A few kilometres down the road is an old university - the oldest in Australia, in fact.
6. Thousands of people are queueing near you. They seem to be keen to get into some kind of stadium. Or are they trying to get into the stadium next door? Some movie studios are just around the corner.
7. There are some good views of Sydney's skyline from here. Turning around 180 degrees, you can see that you're standing near a cliff, with breakers smashing against the rocks below. To your left and right the cliff gets higher. You have to fend off seagulls who want to eat your fish and chips.
8. You are on a small peninsula which juts out into a river. Three bridges cross the river near where you are standing - one for trains and two for cars. There are no gigantic statues nearby, which is interesting considering the name of this place.
9. You're at the end of the line. The railway line that is. There are many colonial buildings nearby, and a quaint oval. An art deco cinema on the main street is showing the latest blockbusters. A few kilometres to the west there's a large river.
10. You're sitting in a nice little cafe overlooking a lovely body of water. There's an island not far away, and maybe you'll take the minute ferry there after your meal. You wouldn't mind owning a yacht and sailing around this area. Thousands of people have had that idea before you, though. You can see lots of bushland across the water.
