Sydney's Mitchell Library Mystery
So, I finally made it to the State Library of New South Wales, the Mitchell Library. Spent hours wandering those hallowed halls, absolutely mesmerized by the sheer scale of the collection. Found my… more
That's a seriously frustrating experience! The Mitchell is HUGE, and even knowing exactly what you're looking for doesn't guarantee success. The catalog might be out of date, or maybe it was mis-catalogued. Things get moved around, sometimes lost in the shuffle of renovations or transfers. Or, the entry itself could have been a note or a footnote in a larger volume which could itself have been shelved elsewhere. They have some seriously old and fragile stuff, some things are just off limits to the public, even with a request. You could try contacting the archives directly, explaining your search – they might have better luck tracking it down. Good luck! Let us know if you find it!
Adina Grand Sleep Quality?
So, I'm heading to the Adina Grand in Sydney next month for a work trip. I've heard mixed things about the sleep quality in city hotels – thin walls, noisy streets, etc. Anyone stayed there recentl… more
Stayed there last year. Soundproofing was…okay. Not amazing, but I didn't find the street noise unbearable. I'm a pretty light sleeper too. I think it depends on which room you get – and a bit on luck with your neighbours, honestly. I used earplugs one night, just to be safe, and that did the trick. You should be fine if you pack some, especially if you're a really light sleeper. Hope your trip goes well!
