Six weeks from today I will head home to Alaska for Christmas and after that, on 31 December, I will hop on a plane to Melbourne, Australia to spend a month communing with the dingos and the wallabees.
Goonder bought a ticket too and will spend 2 weeks with me. (Yaay!)
The count down to Oz has begun people. All free time will now be spent planning, researching and anticipating.
Please include any and all travel tips and must sees in the comment section.

Travel tip #1: Take Your Own Personal Mother with you.
Wow... it will be so scray the day you spend one month at whatever city you are calling home.
Jealous. :)
Just don't plan too much. I think one of the best aspects of my trip was that the only things set in stone were the days I arrived and the days I left. For example, you may like Sydney so much that you will want to stay longer. I ended up cancelling my trip to Cairns because I was having so much fun, and it was the best decision ever!
Not really a tip, but a request. Give Alaska a big huge for me. Especially if you get to Juneau.
You should eat two family-sized packs of Tim Tams every day while you are there.
We so should have spoken about Aust. whilst you were in CHI...so many many great things...:) Maybe we should have a phone conversation about it!
