edp...good call on the daughter part!! - i have a daughter who is jsut 10 (yesterday!!) and the attitude has been coming for MONTHS!!! get it out B4 she hates you for ruining her life just coz your her parent!! hahaha
Definately fly as has been said you'll spend 3 of the 4 wks on a train otherwise, unless u can buy a datto whilst here and then sell on here b4 u go!
Hamilton Island is another great island to go to, and the Barrier Reef is even better in person than in pictures or tv!
Darwin is a different place, but kakadu is amazing, sydney can be hectic but regardless of what the melbournites and Adelaidians say, Sydney has the best dattos around!!!
Australians in general are a very friendly bunch - you will encounter many bogan people n ppl who just downright rude, but you get that anywhere you go just take no notice of them or let them ruin your trip!!
As for the two-headed comment about ppl in adelaide i would have to say that Newcastle in NSW holds that title! - sorry guys!
The joy of most cities here in Australia you can drive an hour out of them and still be classified as being in the area - i mean you can drive out to Richmond or penrith in Sydney and still be classified as being in Sydney - just an example......Eastern Creek has the International Drag Way, Richmond has the RAAF Base - always fun watching the C-17s and Hercs taking off and landing..and occiasionally the hornets doing fly overs or the blackhawks doing training....for the plane enthusiasts!
Adelaide is dubbed the City oF Churches, speaks for itself
Everywhere you go in Australia there is something different to see.....its just amazing!!
just curious......with my wagon if i put the rusted panels back on to her n took her as is, filled with all the parts n #OOPS#, would any of you be interested in having a look and perhaps giving me sum pointers? this is if i threw her onto a trailer for the day.....wat u reckon?
dunno know how much a CA engine weighs but we picked up a CA and transported it in the back of the 1200 ute we had at the time. she sat real low but went just fine.
