facilites and security is superb. REally good travel centre there,
two TV
rooms, good showers - pretty good price and helpful. Sorry, not sure
of
current prices.

Agreed with all of the above.....HOWEVER, it appears to draw a bit of
a
party crowd.

D'Oh! Just seen your posting. Just got back from spending the snow
season
working on Mt Ruapehu and got to board into the volcano at the end of
the
season. I've got some good pics. Shame I only just saw it.

Cheers

I'm a travel writer doing a piece for a national magazine on
visiting
volcanoes around the world. I need to include some quotes from
visitors to Mt. Ruapehu/Tongariro National park and I'd like to know
if anyone would like to be interviewed for the story, either via
email
or phone. Would you let me know this week, please, because I'm on a
deadline?
Thanks so much,

| Hi Everyone,
| In March I'm going to Australia for a holiday
for 3 weeks. While I'm
| there
| I
| intend to do some snorkelling and I would like
to teach my
| girlfriend
| how
| to
| snorkel.
| Can anyone recommend a beach around Brisbane
that I can go to?
| Ideally
| I'm
| looking for a sandy beach with Very small waves.
It dosen't have to
| be
| too
| intresting as I just need it for her to get used
to the water while
| wearing
| a mask and snokel. The most important thing are
the small waves.
| I'm hoping that we can go to the marine reserve
in Moreton Bay, but
| before
| that I have to be able take her snorkelling off
the mainland shore.
|
| Can anyone also tell me if there are box
jellyfish around Brisbane
| at
| the
| moment. I don't think there are, but I'd like to
check.
|
| Thanks in advance
|
| Darren
|
|
| Try Pumicestone Passage, Bribie Island , nice sandy
beaches, next to
| no
| jellyfish, quite a few pods of dolphins and the odd
dugong. Just a
| sandy
| bottom though so its fairly boring.
|
| On calm days the Ocean Beach is ok.
|
| For something more interesting the wrecks on Moreton
Island are really
| worth
| the visit, the area is sheltered and very good for
first timers.
|
| Redcliffe has a beach which is cross between grit,
mud and rocks. Any
| closer
| to Brisbane and the beaches get to be muddy and full
of mangroves.
| Going
| South is similar.

Ok, I know that this is a subjective question. But I am trying to
get
a sense of whether the declining US dollar still lets you travel
affordably in Australia. Perhaps a comparison would be useful. Is it
as expensive as travelling in Europe? Or is it a little less
expensive, say, like travelling in Canada? Thanks in advance for any
help here!
