My eldest daughter and her partner are going to travell along the East coast of Australia for 4 weeks, from Brisbane to Cairs by camper and car.

They're quite capable of organizing their trip, but I just wondered if there's anybody out there who has some more ideas for them.
They love deep sea diving, eating and enjoying themselves.

Any Islands worth looking at???

They will be flying back to Sidney, stay there for a couple of days before they return home.

They're leaving on April 30.

Just wondered.

Hi Maree, thanks so much for all the information. I'll show them tomorrow, they're staying here for the Easter weekend.

I'll show them your invitation to meet in Sydney, who knows.

Much obliged dear friend.

I think that's the reason why they're going all the way up to Cairns.

Thanks for the effort Maree,

Wow! How exciting. I live on the Sunshine Coast, we have some beautiful beaches here. But you can't go past the Great Barrier Reef. Check out http://www.qld.gov.au for some more information about Queensland.

Hope they enjoy their holiday.
