    Hey all,

    I'm headed to Australia from the 21st to the 31st. I'll be hitting Melbourne ,Adelaide and Sydney in that order. Is there anything happening that I could see or things I "must" see when I'm there.

    Feel free to PM or reply here.

    Thanks

    can do a HAMB bbq, best to let us know what dates you are in what cities.

    bring your winter woolies though. its not exactly summer here at the moment.

    Thanks guys for the info. I'll check out the links.

    I'm not worried about the weather. It can't be any worse than what we have had here in New England.
