Oh how funny!
Leads to the big question : If you find a wallet in the street, do you bring it back to the police station or keep it to yourself?
Or another way to look at it : a way to encourage people to open generously their purse to the various charities that will as them to be generous at Xmas time.

In any case I love that sort of street art left to passers by to ponder!

Answer to your question :

Your friend should go for the obvious of course, Opera house, harbour bridge, the Rocks, the Botanic Gardens, the north shore in Kirribilli, Paddington for the terrace houses, the beaches and all the coastal walks she can find (bondi to coogee but also spit bridge to manly or rose bay to shark bay), taking a ferry to Manly one day, taking a ferry to Watsons Bay another day, or to Balmain, or Parramatta.

The fish market (and have lunch there). Chinatown (and Paddy's market for cheap souvenir koalas and tee-shirts made in China!)

And out of town the Blue mountains of course. And a day tour to the Hunter valley if she's interested in wine making.

All of that should keep her busy for a while. You can suggest she has a look at our website www.voyageaustralie.com - the page in Sydney has a fair bit of info in French!

The purse is still around after so many years! Looks like no one picked it up!

Looks like there's a Sydney talk. When at Paddington, head to Bills for breakfast! Satisfaction guaranteed!
