I hope this was worth it.....

[Mad Aussie]

I can see it now...every winery tour in AUS and photo shoots on the way.

a) you will need to come here for several years
b) you will need to spend very little time in Qld!

[Greg_Nuspel]

LOL...OMG It's the Bambi and Casil do AUS tour!
Hey Greg...you in???

Yes

[Greg_Nuspel]

lol, so in the suitcase:
sun screen
hat
tripod (camera in carry on)
corkscrew
advil

that should do it.

I didn't know this was a nudist thing but when in Rome....

Actually I'm looking for a cheap way to vacation in AUS! I'll leave you a set of wind briefs as a "Welcome to Canada" gift!
LOL actually I just want to meet AntZ!

I've been missing all of this

Canada is on my list of places to see. Has been for many years. My wife even mentioned going, while watching the Olympics the other night with a friend who was in Whistler early last year and loved it. I'm sure its a case of the grass is also greener, but sitting here in 30+degrees at 8pm the snow looks soooo nice.

Advantage is if you come here in the summer it will still feel nice and cool for you.

Yes...especially when you guys are at +30 and we are at -30! -30 without a windchill! I dunno about anybody else but I'll take +30 over -30 any day of the week!!!
Mind you right now it is +1.

Well today it's just above freezing I know because it started to rain while I was out photographing Casil deer friends

[casil403]

You lucky bum Greg_Nuspel! I just studied....

[casil403]

Make sure you come out for Stampede! YAHOO!!!!!
Mind you I'm not a Stampede person but I guess it's fun for tourists.
Plus another bonus...we don't get the humidity here like they do back east.It's hot, but not muggy drippy hot.
