WHITE RABBIT GALLERY – BIG IN CHINA EXHIBITION – ACCESSIBLE SYDNEY
We discovered the White Rabbit Gallery earlier this year when we were lured there to see the fabulous Lumen exhibition. When invited to visit again to see the new exhibition, Big in China, we jumped at the chance. The description of the exhibition …
NEIGHBOURHOOD EARTH – ACCESSIBLE SYDNEY
I'm not usually drawn to the idea of space travel but during the pandemic it has, at times, seemed a reasonable option. Children, adults and billionaires are intrinsically curious about what is beyond our planet. If you're one of those people, you'll …

KANGAROO VALLEY ACCESSIBILITY – WOMBATS, SHOPPING & PICNICS
I've been visiting Kangaroo Valley since I was a child. This quiet town is about two hours south of Sydney (give or take) and is the perfect spot for a day trip or weekend getaway. On our most recent stay we found the countryside in Kangaroo Valley …
SOUTH CRONULLA BEACH – POWER BEACH WHEELCHAIR – ACCESSIBLE SYDNEY BEACH
We popped on down to South Cronulla Beach on the weekend to check out the beach matting. We didn't realise it needs to be booked in advance therefore it wasn't out, but we did get to check out the rest of the facilities. BJ also had the opportunity …
