Is Australia a Questionable Destination?
It seems timely, that coincident with the release of the movie 'Australia' with superstar Nicole Kidman, the great unwashed are starting to ask questions about Australia as a destination for travellers. Past movies such as Crocodile Dundee, Quigley DownUnder and The Man From Snowy River have produced bonza coverage for Australian Tourism but now it is time to ask searching questions about this big island and who better to ask than the sheila from Gundagai, none other than the less than well known scribe (scribess), Nicole N. Dime.
To help readers with this in-depth look at the questionable aspects of Oz you may need to refer to a map, atlas or search engine to fully understand this sun-burnt country known as Down Under. You can make geography fun by seeking the answers to the questions in this important treatise. Some excellent places for maps and information are the websites of tourism offices and tour operators which are listed at the end of this diatribe for your convenience (if you actually get to the end, that is).
Our first searching question is:
Where did Sydney Harbour the Prisoners Of Mother England on that maiden cruise with the First Fleet who were already ashore and looking for B&B’s in Botany Bay? Check out the names of the First Fleet cruise passengers and crew, you may have a convict as a long lost relative and may get called a whingeing pom for your efforts.
What made the Blue Mountains blue? It could be that it was Windeyer on the other side or that they lost the Circular Quay.
When does Wollongong? Every time a sheep is sheered to make the soon to be famous brand of Wool-loomoo 'loo' covers in Woolloomooloo.
Moving along we ask the following:
Why did the Great Australian Bight, Ayers Rock and the Rock Wave? Because the 12 Apostles helped Freycinet some Barra on Mundi and then found a Cook that did not Taree.
What did Darwin and Didjerido when they heard about the Bungles of Katherine and Emma when they helped Windjanner Gorge? They told Ballarat Tunnel Creek who picked up the Broome to clear away the Rottnests.
Did Coral Sea the Great Barrier Reef in some shrimp for the barbie? No, because he could only hear the Norfolk Pine.
Some Australian literature questions:
Was it Mudgee when Neville Shute wrote On The Beach In The Wet? Yes, because when Clancy came down from the Overflow to meet The Man From Snowy River he was Beyond The Black Stump in A Far Country.
Enough is enough, try finding some of your own from the wonderful place names found in this wonderful country by asking tourism offices and operators in the Northern Territories, Western Australia, Queensland, New South Wales, Tasmania, South Australia, Victoria, ACT and The Top Travel Club who arranged this unique interview with Nicole N. Dime.
G'day to all future mates, cobbers, jackaroos and jillaroos. Please remember to seek out a language course in 'Strine' before jumping on the flying kanga. And, strewth, did you know that in the Australian version of the new James Bond movie he has changed his name to James Bondi?
