This state was the first state of Australia. Its capital is Sydney with a poplulation of 4m (postcode 2000)
Sydney is a quite a busy city. The weather is quite hot during the summer but is humid. The weather may change suddenly - the sky may get dark early, giving the eerie feeling before the rain falls. The rains are quite awful, coming down in buckets. Sometimes the rain falls for a few minutes while on other days, it rains for days. The weather cools down but is still warm. The city is quite hilly. The suburbs are quite small and are close to beaches. The city is not as green as Melbourne.
