information about Sydney

The first thing to know is just some general information about Sydney.
Sydney is located on the southeastern coast of Australia, and it’s the capital of New South Wales.

Sydney is considered one of the most diverse cities in the world, with more than 40 percent of the population originally hailing from outside Australia. While Sydney originally started life as a British prison colony, it is now most well known for its amazing harbor, magnificent beaches, and delicious cuisine, all wrapped up in a modern city with classic British roots that remain distinctly Australian. All these things combined make Sydney one of the world’s most popular tourist destinations.

Little bit of information

The second thing to know is just a little bit of information to help you get oriented around Sydney.

Life in Sydney revolves around the harbor, and Sydney is often nicknamed “The Harbor City.” Now, the downtown area is known as the Central Business District, and many of the major attractions you’ll be interested in as a visitor to Sydney are located there.

There’s the city center, which is the part with all the high-rise buildings, but just next to the city center, over to the west, is The Rocks. This is the colonial start.

This is Darling Harbor. Darling Harbor is also home to the Wildlife Zoo, Madame Tussauds, the Maritime Museum, the Sydney International Convention Center, and, of course, a really neat Ferris wheel.

Right over to the west of Darling Harbor is City West, which is home to Sydney’s Fish Markets, many more maritime-themed spots, and Sydney’s major casino, The Star Casino. To the south is City South, where you’ll find Haymarket, Chinatown, and the Central Station area, with lots of markets, cafés, Chinese culture, and some cheaper accommodation and shopping in this neighborhood.

Now, over to the east, you’ll find Kings Cross, Woolloomooloo, and Moore Park. Here, you’ll find busy nightlife, coffee shops, fashion, and entertainment by day. And, of course, Sydney is also famous for its beaches—there are over 100 of them here! But I’ll talk more about Sydney’s beaches in section number six.

how to get into Sydney

The third thing to know is how to get into Sydney. If you’re flying in, then chances are you’ll be landing at Sydney International Airport. It is 10 kilometers to the south of the city center. There are about 40 airlines that fly into there, with Qantas being the major carrier. A couple of ways to get into the city include buses and taxis, but I think the best way if you’re staying in the Central Business District is to take the train. It takes about 15 minutes from the airport into the city center.

It costs 19 Australian dollars. If it’s a few of you, maybe take a taxi or an Uber, as you could save some money, but if it’s just one, take the train—it’s pretty solid, fast, and efficient.

Now, if you’re already in Australia, you can take a train into Sydney’s Central Station, which happens to be close to Chinatown. If you’re coming from Melbourne in the south, it’ll take you 11 and a half hours; from Brisbane in the north, it’ll take you 13 hours. You can even take a train from Perth on the west coast, but that will take you four days.

If you need to stow your bag somewhere, Sydney Central Station has a convenient baggage storage area where you can store large suitcases for 15 dollars for same-day pickup or 24 dollars for next-day pickup.

Another option, if you really don’t have all that much money, is to take a bus into Sydney. Right below the Central Train Station is the Sydney Coach Terminal, where you’d arrive if you’re taking a long-distance bus like Greyhound. If you’re coming in by cruise ship, you’ll be coming into one of two cruise ship piers here in Sydney.

One is the White Bay Cruise Terminal, which is about six kilometers away from the city center, or this pier, which is the Overseas Passenger Terminal. It is right at Circular Quay. So, if you’re picking between cruises and you see that one of them docks at the Overseas Passenger Terminal, that’s the better one.

getting around sydney

The fourth thing to know is about getting around Sydney. I mentioned the Harbor City, so the coolest way to get around Sydney is on the harbor. There are tons of ferries that’ll take you almost anywhere you want to go on the harbor, but the city’s hub of ferries is Circular Quay, over by the Opera House.

From there, you can take ferries to Taronga Zoo, across the way to Manly Beach, and all the way down to Olympic Park. You can almost treat these public ferries as a sightseeing cruise. One of the neat things is, in addition to buying tickets, you get these rechargeable Opal cards to use. But you don’t even need that; if you have a credit card, a Visa or MasterCard with the tap feature, you can use those to tap on and tap off any of the ferries, which also works on the trains that we’re going to talk about next.

One of the coolest ferry routes for sightseeing is definitely the one that goes from Darling Harbor to Circular Quay, or vice versa. It takes 15 minutes, goes underneath the Sydney Harbour Bridge, and passes by the Opera House. So if you’re short on time, this one takes you by the big attractions and only costs a few Australian dollars.

Sydney also has a pretty good rail transit network. As a visitor, you’ll probably be most interested in the City Circle loop. It’s a train that basically runs in a circle around the Central Business District. You’ll also find some useful light rail services. With your Opal card, you can tap on and tap off, or again, with your Visa or MasterCard, tap on and tap off—that’s what I do here.

Now, if you’re taking the light rail, because it’s just kind of open here, there are no gates where you tap in and tap off. At these readers, right at the side of the station, remember to tap off so it knows how much to charge you. There are three light rail lines: L2 and L3 go from Central up to Circular Quay, and then L1 will bring you over to The Star Casino and the Fish Market.

Of course, my favorite way to get around Sydney is to walk, and what’s kind of cool if you’re walking is there are all these signs around Sydney that tell you where you are and where things are. They tell you how to get to Central Station, how to get to the Capitol Theatre, and in the age of Google Maps, this is still really convenient to know that you’re on the right path.

By the way, when you’re walking in Sydney, make sure you look both ways before you cross the street. They even have some things in the crosswalk often to remind you; it’ll say “look left” or “look right.” Just look both ways because cars might be coming from the wrong direction rather than where you expect if you’re used to cars driving on the right.

Sydney has a pretty good bus network, particularly useful if you’re going down to Bondi Beach. You could also ride bikes around Sydney—it’s a really bikeable city. If you didn’t bring a bike (most people don’t), there are plenty of bike-share bikes scattered around. You could rent a car, but it’s not really going to be useful for the city center.

Parking is expensive and hard to find—really, it’s only useful if you’re going around the suburbs or between cities. But if you do rent a car, please don’t speed. They use tons of speed cameras here, not just ones at a point in time, but they also average your speed over a distance, so drive the speed limit if you are renting a car.

I found taxis and ride shares to be plentiful in Sydney, but I did find that Uber sometimes forced me to come to dedicated pickup and drop-off zones. Pluto in Bondi Beach is a pickup and drop-off zone—that’s a new one to me.

what to eat and amazing food

The fifth thing to know is about what to eat, and Sydney has an amazing international food scene. But in particular, Sydney is super well known for breakfast and brunch options. It seems like you can find a pancake restaurant on about every corner. The other thing Sydney is really known for is its Chinatown.

Sydney has the largest Chinatown in all of Australia, and really it’s an Asia town with all sorts of Asian cuisine. But my favorite Asian cuisine in Sydney is Malaysian cuisine, particularly at this place, Mamak. They specialize in roti. This is basically like a pulled flatbread, and I’ve also got some mee goreng—thank you very much! That’s delicious noodles right here, a spicy noodle.

This place is super busy, so make sure you come right when they open; otherwise, you’re going to be waiting a long time. And make sure you get the Malaysian tea. This is the tea tarik; it has a frothy top, it’s sweet, hot, and delicious. But this roti—you can see them making it out in the window—it’s the roti that everybody’s here for.

On the dish here, it comes with a double lentil fish curry and some chili sambal (some spicy chili). I got a couple of extra ones to take back home. Delicious! Let’s dive into the mee goreng right here—it just came out of the kitchen, it’s hot. The noodles are just the right amount of spongy and chewy, and it definitely has a good kick to it.

dessert is the best with super delicious cendol, which was super delicious. It looks kind of weird—these are noodles made of pandan leaves, which makes them green, served with coconut milk and ice. It’s just really good. But I want to point out, ordering in Sydney restaurants, including this one, there’s a QR code on the table, and so you need your cell phone to be able to order there.

If you don’t have a cell phone, they do take orders up at the cash register. You tell them your table number, and then they bring the food out. This is something I’m seeing more and more often: you pay ahead, and then you get your food. It’s kind of nice because then you can leave right at the end and you’re not trying to look for the bill, taking 10 more minutes to leave. I like that trend.

Another really excellent Malaysian spot in Sydney is Hojak. They’ve got two locations; this one’s in Chinatown. the laksa is the best in this restaurant. Laksa is a Malaysian soup that’s spicy with a coconut base and two types of noodles—egg noodles and rice noodles. Two types of meat: chicken and shrimp. And this one, quite delicious! For dessert, I topped it off with the teh tarik affogato ice cream, which has that little coffee thing on the side. You pour it on, eat it for a little bit while the ice cream is hard, and then you drink it. Of course, to wash it all down, I didn’t have enough iced Malaysian tea, so I got an iced Malaysian tea anyway. This is another super solid Malaysian spot in Sydney.

Now, if the lines at Mamak and Hojak are too long, another really solid Malaysian spot is called Malay Malay, just on the backside of Paddy’s Market. This place is open late—it’s open until midnight every day. They specialize in Hainanese chicken, which is super popular in Malaysia and Singapore, even though it’s a Chinese dish. It’s chicken with some dipping sauces—really quite tasty. And they’ve also got roti, too. The roti here was served with kind of a sautéed peanuty sauce.

Sydney is known for its fresh seafood, and right now I’m at the Sydney Fish Market. This is the 32 seafood platter from the Fish Market Café here at Sydney’s Fish Market. What do we got in here? We’ve got some fried fish, some baby octopus, some oysters, and some calamari—all served on a bed of—I’d call them French fries, but they would call them chips. Super delicious! This place, in addition to having some of the freshest seafood around, they also do seafood auctions.

You can get in there to see it, like they do tours at like 6:40 in the morning. I did not do one of those; it’ll cost you extra to do that. You can just take a look at all the raw seafood and live things they have on sale. It’s definitely worth the visit here, even if you don’t like seafood.

Now, in Sydney’s Central Business District, they’ve got a lot of really neat food courts. One of my favorites is in the Gateway Office Building. It’s right across from Circular Quay. What do I like here? They have Din Tai Fung soup dumplings in a food court! I’ve never had Din Tai Fung in a food court. I say it’s my favorite; I’ve eaten a gazillion times. I’ve eaten Din Tai Fung a gazillion times, but these little soup dumplings—mmm, they’re really good.

They’re really flavorful. And I’ve never been able to get them to go quickly. It’s the kind of place you have to wait for hours. Here, you can just order from a kiosk, and then they call your food in like five minutes. And they’ve got little soybean drinks that I was drinking right here. I’ve got one of their pork belly buns. You can get this just an order of one for about five Australian dollars—crispy, sweet, delicious, and also really unique. This food court, Din Tai Fung, has rice dishes where you can get a few small bites and some of Din Tai Fung’s delicious fried rice.

Now, for a really unique food court-like experience that’s just focused on Asian food, head over to Spice Alley. This place is about three blocks south of Sydney’s Central Station, and it is kind of like a Singaporean hawker center. Here, you’re going to find all Asian food. You will find Hainan chicken, Malaysian food, Indonesian food, ramen—it is super delicious. It’s outdoors, though, so make sure you come here on a good weather day because if you’re here on a rainy day, kind of like this one, you’ll have to be just under the few tents they have.

Sydney is a city of some really tasty pastries, and for some of the best (and probably most expensive), head over to Koi Dessert Bar. This is about three blocks from Spice Alley, and two of their most popular are one with passion fruit and one with brownie Nutella flavor.

What is a man to do when presented with two best options? The answer is: get both! See what I do for you. The two of these cost 30 Australian dollars total—not each, not cheap, but they were super delicious and definitely satisfied my mid-afternoon sweet tooth.

Let’s talk about coffee for a moment. Some could say Sydneysiders consider their coffee a religion, and actually, I found the source for that religion: the Ministry of Coffee. But the coffee in Sydney is cappuccino—it’s really good. I don’t like coffee a lot of places because it’s often bitter and hard to drink, but here, it’s just smooth.

They have a super great coffee culture here, and it’s all espresso-based drinks. So if you like coffee, you’re going to love Sydney. Check out some of the local small chains—you won’t find many Starbucks here, which is probably a good thing.

Now, if you’re looking for some classic Australian food, head no further than Harry’s Café de Wheels. This place is Sydney’s first food truck—it’s been here since 1945. What are they famous for? They’re famous for their tiger pie.

This is a beef meat pie with mashed potatoes, mushy cheese, and gravy, and for 15.90 Australian dollars, you get it with fries and a soda. So, let’s go ahead and dive into this meat pie with gravy right here. I’ve got to cut it open. By the way, it’s a food truck, so there are only a few stools right on the side of the road. They’ve got a few other locations in Sydney, but you’ll want to come here to the original in Woolloomooloo.

Super cool because it’s the only neighborhood that has eight o’s in it. It’s good, it’s flavorful. There it is, you can see the beef inside. And lots of famous people have eaten here, from Pamela Anderson to Colonel Sanders.

about nightlife, party and drink

The sixth thing to know is about nightlife and if you’re looking for some place to party and get your drink on then the cheapest place to do that where people party late is kings cross station of the same name you can take to get here the biggest icon here is the coca-cola billboard right there at the major intersection now some other great places for nightlife in sydney is just in the city center central business district and also in the rocks there are some great pubs there as well now you’ll

find many of the pubs actually have hotel in their name because in days of old in sydney you had to offer accommodation in order to sell alcoholic drinks now sydney has some interesting things related to when bars and pubs close when they stop serving alcohol so they need to close at 3am but they don’t let in any new customers after 1 30 in the morning so lockout lock in you’re locked in or you’re locked out so don’t expect to bar hop after 1 30 in the morning oh and if you’re more in a day

drinking the nightlife the opera bar is the place to go for that more about that and things to do

about the beaches

The seventh thing to know is about the beaches in Sydney. Sydney has over 100 beaches—there are a lot of them! As a visitor, I think the coolest beach you could visit is Manly Beach. Why? Well, because you can get here by ferry from the Central Business District, departing from Circular Quay. The ferry takes 30 minutes and brings you to Manly Wharf, and then it’s just a three-block walk to Manly Beach.

Manly Beach is a really big, crescent-shaped beach with waves popular for surfing. Along the main shopping street, you’ll find all the big surf brands like Rip Curl, Quiksilver, and Oakley, as well as lots of restaurants and bars. It has a cool vibe overall. If you prefer swimming, there’s another beach right by Manly Wharf that’s netted off, so you can swim safely, protected from ocean creatures that might be lurking in these Australian waters.

Now, if you don’t want to get in the water but just want to enjoy nature, the great news is that there are some amazing coastal walks at both Manly and Bondi. When you arrive at Manly Wharf, you’ll find an information kiosk where you can pick up a map that shows all the neat coastal routes. If you like walking, you’ll enjoy these trails. Just remember to keep left—just like the driving rule in Australia, you’ll need to walk on the left too.

Sydney’s most popular and iconic beach by far is Bondi Beach. In summer, Bondi is packed wall-to-wall with people. Today, since it’s winter, it’s not as busy. Something that makes this beach really cool is the Bondi Icebergs Club, a public swimming pool right by the beach. You can pay nine dollars to swim there, protected from the waves. On a rough day like today, you wouldn’t want to swim in the open ocean, but you can swim safely in the pool—there are even people swimming there now!

If you didn’t bring a towel, no worries—you can rent one for just four dollars. There are also more protected pools like this all along the Sydney coast, with about 40 in total spread across the beaches.

To get to Bondi Beach from Circular Quay, you can take the bus (routes 380 or 333), which takes about 45 minutes. Alternatively, you can take an Uber, which is what I did—it took 25 minutes and cost about 25 Australian dollars from the city center.

Even in winter, Bondi Beach is a pretty neat place to visit. I really wish I had brought my swimsuit to try out the swimming pool. If you’re looking for the best spot to get a selfie with the beach, it’s just above the Icebergs Club. There’s a manufactured lookout with a bench and a shade sail. While it won’t protect you from the rain, it’ll shield you from the summer sun.

If you’re not into getting in the water, good news—there’s a fantastic coastal walk here too. The walk has a great map showing all the nearby bathrooms. It takes about 15 minutes to walk to Clovelly Beach, and you can go even further to Coogee Beach.

about shopping

The eighth thing you should know is about shopping. In Sydney, there is a lot of great shopping. I think shopping might be one of the top pastimes for visitors to Sydney. It’s not just that the shops themselves are cool, but the places where you shop are truly amazing. One such place is the Strand Arcade, built in 1891—it’s an absolutely stunning location.

The heart of shopping in Sydney is on George Street, where the Strand Arcade is located. George Street is a pedestrian-friendly street with light rail running from Circular Quay to Central Station. Most of this area is great for shopping, but the heart of it lies at the intersection of George and King Street.

If you’re coming here to shop, you should know that stores close quite early—around 5 p.m. It’s 5:15 p.m. now, and some of these stores are already closed. Some stores might stay open as late as 7 p.m., but that’s about it. In Sydney, Thursday is the late shopping day, when stores stay open until 8 or 9 p.m. However, don’t expect to shop late on any other days.

Another iconic shopping center is the Queen Victoria Building, often referred to as the QVB. Built in 1898, it’s probably one of the grandest shopping centers you’ll ever see. With five floors, the whole place looks like something Queen Victoria herself might have designed. By the way, if you hear piano music, it’s likely coming from someone playing just a few feet away. But remember, this place also closes early. The Strand Arcade closes at 5:30 p.m., and the QVB doesn’t stay open much later—except on Thursdays.

If you’re interested in a flea market shopping experience, look no further than Paddy’s Markets in Chinatown. Open Wednesday to Sunday, this place has hundreds of vendors selling everything from inflatable kangaroos to cell phone cases and even extra suitcases for all the souvenirs you might buy. This isn’t the place for high-end shopping; it’s where you go for cheap and affordable finds. In addition to souvenirs, there’s a small farmers’ market tucked in the back. You can even get a massage here—it seems like this place has everything!

If you get hungry after shopping at Paddy’s Markets, head up one floor to Market City. They have an impressive food court, primarily offering Asian cuisines that are super authentic.

about money

The ninth thing you should know is about money. By the way, I’m walking on the street from Manly Wharf to Manly Beach. What you should know about money is that Australia uses the Australian dollar, and this applies to Sydney and the rest of the country. At the time I made this video, one US dollar was equal to 1.50 Australian dollars.

Sydney is a very card-friendly city. I saw very few places that were cash-only—maybe only one or two shops here and there. Pretty much everywhere else accepts credit cards, which is great. Mastercard and Visa are widely accepted. Some places, like Aldi (where I just got this bottle of water), charge a small surcharge for using a credit card, but they still accept it.

If you’re looking to get cash, the best way is not to exchange money at the airport but to use an ATM. ATMs always offer the best exchange rate, better than the rates from money changers at the airport.

Finally, Sydney offers tax-free shopping. You can get 10% tax back at the airport on purchases over 300 Australian dollars from stores that participate in the program.

about where to stay

The 10th thing to know is about where to stay. If it’s your first time in Sydney, you should definitely stay in the Central Business District (CBD) because that’s where all the tourist attractions are.

I’ve got a few specific hotel recommendations for you. If money is no object, stay at this one: the Park Hyatt Sydney. It’s located right across from the Opera House, underneath the Bay Bridge, and next to Circular Quay. This is an amazing property, but it costs around $1,000 a night, so I only recommend it if money is no concern or if you have a lot of Hyatt points.

A couple of other solid options that I’ve stayed at and can personally recommend include:

The Marriott Circular Quay, which is right in front of the big train station.
The Sheraton Grand Hyde Park, which is located in front of Australia’s oldest public park.
The Hyatt Regency in Darling Harbour, which is Australia’s largest luxury hotel and another excellent choice.

about the language

The 11th thing The 11th thing to know is about the language. The primary language in Sydney is English, but they speak Australian English, which is heavily accented and includes lots of slang. If you’ve learned what you consider to be proper textbook English, you might not understand what they’re saying half the time. But don’t worry—you’ll pick it up pretty quickly!

You’ll also hear many other languages since Sydney is very cosmopolitan. After English, the second most spoken language is Mandarin Chinese.

The 12th thing to know is about the weather and the best time to visit. Remember, the weather in Sydney is reversed from the northern hemisphere. Winter here is in July and August, while summer is from December to February. Summers are warm, and winters are mild—you’re not going to freeze here in Sydney. In fact, I’m shooting this in winter, and it’s quite comfortable with just a long-sleeve fleece and long pants.

Summers can be quite hot, so you’ll want to pack shorts, t-shirts, or short skirts if you’re visiting during that time. The best time to visit is during the shoulder seasons—spring (September to November) and autumn (April to May).

Now, to answer the question of how much time you should spend in Sydney: I’d recommend no less than three days. However, there’s easily seven days’ worth of activities, especially if you’re exploring the outskirts and areas outside the CBD. For the Central Business District alone, three days is a solid amount of time.

visit the Sydney opera house

top things to do in Sydney Australia 2025

The most iconic thing to do in Sydney is to visit the Sydney Opera House. You can certainly take in a show while you’re there, but what most people don’t realize from all the pictures is that there’s actually a gigantic bar right underneath the Opera House—in true Australian style. Actually, there are two bars: the Opera Bar and the Opera Kitchen. From here, you can enjoy great views of the ferries going in and out of Circular Quay, and if you look the other way, you’ll get stunning views of the Harbour Bridge.

Speaking of the Harbour Bridge, you can walk across it, which is pretty neat. The part of the bridge you can walk on for free is the deck, but for hundreds of dollars, you can climb to the top of the bridge. You might even see tiny people at the top—they’re doing the iconic bridge climb. If you’re looking for a budget-friendly option, you can go to the top of one of the pylons for around 19 Australian dollars. Just check the hours, as it’s only open a few days a week. The views from up there are absolutely rewarding.

After visiting the Opera House, take a stroll through Sydney’s Royal Botanic Gardens. These gardens showcase Australia’s British heritage and maintain a tradition of beautiful public spaces. Some people come for a picnic, others to admire the plants and flowers, and many Sydney locals come here to run along the harbor. Admission to the gardens is free, and it’s definitely worth a visit. Walking through the Botanic Gardens might remind you of Central Park in New York City—not because it’s in the center of the city, but because of the high-rise buildings bordering the gardens. It’s a fascinating view.

If you’re an animal lover and have a half-day to spare, visit the Taronga Zoo. Located on the other side of Sydney Harbour, it’s about a 15-minute ferry ride from Circular Quay. Once you arrive, take the cable car or sky ride up to the top of the zoo and walk your way down. The zoo features spacious, natural enclosures that don’t feel like cages, making it a pleasant experience for the animals and visitors alike. Highlights include the Australian animal exhibit, where you can see koalas, Tasmanian devils, and more. The zoo also has a great gift shop, where you might even spot some wildlife, like a turkey strolling around. The zoo closes at 4:30 PM, so plan your visit accordingly. Don’t forget to admire the incredible views of Sydney from the zoo—they’re some of the best in the city, especially near the gorilla enclosure.

Sydney is a modern city, but if you want to explore its historic roots, head to The Rocks. This is where the British first landed and where the city began. The area is full of charm, with old post boxes and cobblestone streets. The Rocks Square is the center of activity here, featuring a weekend market and quaint eateries, like the Thai noodle place “Peanut.” You’ll also find some of Sydney’s oldest pubs in this area, such as the Australian Heritage Hotel. Don’t be fooled by the name—it’s a bar, not an actual hotel. Explore the Argyle Stairs to get to higher levels of The Rocks, and from there, you can access the Harbor Bridge stairs for a walk across the bridge.

If the area around the Opera House, Botanic Gardens, The Rocks, and the Harbor Bridge is Sydney’s most touristy spot, Darling Harbour is a close second. This area is bustling with attractions, including the SEA LIFE Aquarium, Madame Tussauds, and a zoo. While it’s popular with tourists, Darling Harbour is also worth visiting for its promenade, which is great for walking. It’s lively during the day and beautifully lit at night. If you’re feeling adventurous, you can walk along the harborfront from Darling Harbour all the way to the Opera House.

For families, Luna Park is a fun destination. This amusement park, located across the harbor from Circular Quay, is Australia’s version of Disneyland. Check their seasonal schedule before visiting. If you’re into gambling, Sydney also has a big and modern casino called The Star, complete with a hotel, restaurants, buffets, and even inexpensive breakfast specials.

If you’re a fan of museums, Sydney offers a fantastic deal: all public museums are free. This includes the National Maritime Museum. If you’re into art, visit the Art Gallery of New South Wales for modern art. Bonus: it’s open late on Wednesday nights until 10 PM. Another late-night museum option is the Museum of Contemporary Art, which stays open until 9 PM on Fridays. For science enthusiasts, there’s the Powerhouse Museum, and if you’re interested in Aboriginal history, check out the Australian Museum. This is just a short list—there’s plenty more to explore.

What is the best time to visit Sydney?

The best time to visit Sydney is during the spring-September to November-and autumn-March to May-months; the weather is mild and pleasant, and you can avoid the peak tourist crowds of summer.
