Summer Holidays
With a trip to the UK ruled out as waaaay too expensive
Anyone got any great OZ (again) holiday suggestons.
Weve been here 4 years and done Sydney, blue mountains, Victoria, great ocean road and down to phillip island and the Vic Mountains. Been to Magnetic, Hayman and Cairns and surrounds, Adelaide (next please
) and even Canberra, now bearing in mind this is December I think the outback and Darwin are ruled out, done Bris, gold and sun and hinterlands to death. We hate Bali and done the combi round NZ. With respect to perth I doubt its going to offer much that I cant see here considering the 6 hours on a plane.
New and exciting suggestions pleeeease

Tassie or Fiji.
Loved both of them.
Fiji $549 PP for 7 nights or
$359 PP for flights only . Alot of the hotels in Fiji do kids stay, play & eat for free with an adult booking.
Im sure you could find some comparable fares to Tassie.
