The Boxing Day Test March at the MCG !!!
I want to go to Wagga Wagga which is apparently by no means the richest town in Australia but is where my long lost cousin lives. She contacted us 6 years ago after tracing her family tree. We have met several times in England but she is urging me and my sister to visit. Coincidently I have just been chatting to my friend who is en route home from Sydney at this very moment. Maybe we can go together next year.
I would love to visit the Outback, and experience the vastness of natural Australia
