Largest freshwater invertebrate in the world is found in Tasmanian
and currently protected.

WOW. :thumbsup

Brisbane is a shit hole, sorry.

Sydney is great, Melbourne is a good party town, Adelaide is 'nice', Perth is stunning.

The South Island of New Zealand beats them all hands down though

Some NZ for u

The first pic on that site is my home town, Dunedin.

I agree, thats were I would go for sure

yeeap.


The only photo I have from the gold coast is from one time when it wasn't so sunny (1st AAI convention anyone?)

Perth = Chilled out. Normal. Friendly people.

If you want shopping and touristy crap then Sydney or Melbourne.

I was born in Tasmania and used to live near Wineglass Bay! :thumbsup:

Shoehorn, a week isn't a long time although I am sure you will make the most of it.

The best place to visit, well that depends on what you are looking for. Australia is very diverse and each state is like a different country in many ways.

Tasmania is an amazingly pristine environment with more protected wilderness than the U.S. It also has the cleanest air and water in the world at Cape grim. An Island paradise with beautiful beaches, white sands, and clear water.

The Northern Territory is an outback and tropical wonderland. I lived there for 2 years and I loved it. It is rarley ever below 30 degrees celsius.

Queensland is tropical (in the northern part) and has some amazing rainforest and one of the finest reefs in the world. Great beaches.

I have lived in every Australian state and territory except Western Australia and they all have something unique to offer.

It all depends what you are looking for.

Have a kick ass trip and when you are heading this way hit me up! :thumbsup

Rubbish, I would put Brisbane ahead of adelaide anyday. A Shithole? Geezus when was the last time you were in Brisbane?

Sydney is the place to go to do all the touristy stuff. Theres really no point going to Australia as a tourist if you dont goto Sydney.

My favourite city is Melbourne though, its culturally diverse and the people are alot nicer down there.

If you wanna party, it depends what you wanna do. Sydney has the best hardcore dance nightclubs, but you really cant go past Surfers Paradise in Queensland for girls in bikinis everywhere, including all the clubs/pubs.

I only made it to the 2nd one mate, heard the 1st one was a good piss up though :1orglaugh

Me either,but would definitly like to visit it :thumbsup

Im sooooo jealous! The pics are great...I wanna go, anyone want to go with me??? :winkwink:

Haha lots of Aussies put their "two bob" in here. :thumbsup

I respect anyone that says Perth is not the greatest city on the planet, even though you are wrong. :tongue:

Sydney, it's awesome there.

I do think you need to go here http://www.bluemountainssummer.com/ and stay away from tasmania....

Hmmm, post some pics. :Graucho
