I second the Manly thing. I lived in Manly (just off Darley Road) back in '99 for a bit. Lovely part of Sydney, more laid back than the CBD.
If you do take the trip, enjoy a stroll up the Corso and keep an eye out for the pelicans round Manly Cove, and the bats in the evening.
If it's hot and you fancy a swim round there, avoid (most of) the crowds and go round to Shelly Beach.
