So I am going to Australia, leaving Toronto, ON December 11, 2013 and returning January 11, 2014. I will be doing a two week Contiki tour from Cairns, QLD to Sydney, NSW, then meeting Cass and visiting friends in Blayney/Orange, NSW. We will be staying in Sydney for New Years and then travelling to Melbourne, VIC for a total driving distance of about 4000 km. I decided to write this blog to keep friends and family updated as well as for my own memories.
I have 12 days left at work and 16 days until departure. Starting to stress since it seems like there are so many things to do before I leave. Should probably make a TO DO list but that is the first item on my hypothetical TO DO list, weird how that works. I'm sure everything will work out. Can't wait!!
Anyway, please feel free to comment with tips/suggestions/things to do while I'm away.
Mo out.
Too many tips to list. I'll have to talk to you in person. But here are my top three tips (well the first 3 that came to mind)
ReplyDelete#1 Cairns is pronounced "Cans".
#2 You get free booze on the flights over too.
#3 Try and catch one of the Ashes test cricket matches. It was one of the best/drunkest days I had in Australia even though cricket is kind of boring. There is a test match in Sydney around New Years and one in Melbourne starting Boxing Day.
Yes, we will have to catch up before I go, and I would like to borrow that Travel book off you.
ReplyDelete#1 noted.
#2 amazing, might be the only way to withstand the flight.
#3 Cass said there is a Melbourne vs Adelaide game we could go to. Also might try to hit the Australian Tennis pre-tournament stuff. Should be fun.
