You should have applied for that job mini! Did you hear of it? They advertised it as the best job in the world! Some kind of Island Caretaker position for Hamilton Island I think. A pom won it! If Adelaide was every looking for a tourism ambassador they should give you the job!
Anyway this trip ^ sounds PERFECT!!!! Wanna be the tour guide and organiser?
yup... sure... though if i were the driver, i could not drink.. hmmm...
i am thinking of my favorite mclaren wineries - kay brothers for frontignac, maxwells for mead, a stop at Lloyds to sample chili olives, hmmm..

Don't be silly! We'd HIRE the bus and the driver! EASY AS!
It all sounds delish! Plus can we organize it while there's some kind of cultural festival on? I've always wanted to go to WOMADELAIDE or whatever it's called and the FOA and Feast Festival. Any of those!
And the wine and olives and I'll even try those pie floater thingies!

We need to coordinate this to ensure MM is in OZ and can come with!
Shoot for next year. Womadelaide or Feast. And I know the place for pie floaters!
..I think we should also do a tour of all the main murder sites, y'know, Snowtown, Truro, River Torrrens, the hills in general. I could do the commentary! Lets not forget the infamous kidnapping scenes of Addlebrain Oval and Glenelg..woohoo!
Now, if you want wine in Clare Valley, you hafta go to Seven Hills monastery. It's a little more interesting than yer average winery. Mini, will you plump for a night at Martindale Hall for us all?

Brisbane would get my vote, although all offer pretty similar quality of life. Brissie has a more tropical feel, Perth a more 'beachy' feel, and Adelaide a good mix between European cosmopolitan-ness and Australian laid-backness.
If Brissy wasn't so humid.. I'd like it more.. I just don't like humidity.

Ironically, the "Darling Downs" area's climate has me frightened!
Pretty much all of Queensland seems to have an "agreeable climate" for me, aside from Darling Downs.
Darling Downs towns look colder than Sydney or Perth, surprisingly.
And what makes it cold (likely altitude) would probably make the U.V. even more intense.

Oops, make that the "Granite Belt" which is part of an area called "Southern Downs."
That's the place in Queensland that scares me.
