Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Weather in Sydney has a mind of its own. And apparently it never shares its designs with the forecasters. I don't think I saw a single accurate prediction in all the days I spent there. So be prepared. It can be hot and stifling in the morning, then within half an hour it will turn to chilly and rainy. When you come, bring enough clothing to suit all the different conditions. Think layers!
In general, though unstable, Sydney weather tends to be fairly mild, I noticed. At least not while I was there in Nov/Dec.
Toiletries & Medical Supplies: Oh, and be sure to bring AND USE lots of sunscreen. Sun in the Southern hemisphere tends to be brighter, and that nasty ozone hole is right overhead (or at least close enough). That sunburn WILL sneak up on you if you're not careful!
