Sydney, Brisbane and Cairns - Australia

Sydney - one of the most beautiful, vibrant cities in the world. Brisbane - a wonderful city to explore on foot and at the end of the day you can cool off at the inner city man made beach and lagoon. Cairns - a compact low rise town that promotes itself as the "Gateway to the reef". Cairns is a backpacker haven full of bars and backpacker activities and a saltwater lagoon on the promenade to escape the attentions of the box jellyfish that drift through the coastal waters.
