Australia is big. Which bit are you going too?

There are Cable Parks in the Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast and Cairns. Good Surf Breaks South, Eastern and Western Oz. Crocodiles North of Brisbane up to Darwin. Kangaroos generally lying on the road dead.

If your sight seeing there is pretty much something to see in most areas.

cairns - check out the cable park and check out the great barrier reef, most amazing diving/snorkelling u will EVER do. Mind u if ur going soon be careful, we have box jelly fish and u cant swim in the ocean without protection around ur skin, or ull most probably die, just throwin it out there.
Sydney, check out the opera house and couple of other attractions
Brisbane - Cable ski logan (awesome cable park near the gold coast). And try get to Australia Zoo (its the zoo that steve irwin owned and is a really really good place)
Melbourne - i hate it, its busy and stuff but im sure there is stuff to do.

Id type more things to do but im lazy. Hope it helps. Just jump on the net some time and look it up, there is usually HEAPS to check out

I've always wanted to do that for a trip. Put all the spending money on Black. If you win have carefree easy days and if you lose slum it, sleep in door ways and beg for change.

Brisbane is always warm or hot, there is stuff to do everywhere and even when u go into the CBD, its like a 50 50 ratio of people wearing suits to those wearing casual clothes. Therefore Brisbane > Melbourne Razz
Lol

haha brisbane might be better than melbourne if brisbane wasnt stuck in 1970
i didnt know brisbane even had a CBD, i thought it was just one centrelink building with massive queues, hence the casual clothes
