We were introduced to the concept of a honeymoon registry web page through some of our friends, and we thought it would be a great way to organize our honeymoon plans, as well as communicate and involve our guests in those plans. Australia was especially intriguing to us because, in many ways, it is an exotic location - it is about as far away from the states as one can get - but at the same time, it seems familiar (both of us know enough English to get by). (Last updated June 18.)

We're going to Australia!

What makes Australia such an exciting vacation destination - there's so much to do! - also makes it very difficult to make choices about where to visit. The mainland itself is huge, and there are so many beautiful islands off of the coast, one can't hope to see everything in just a couple weeks. We're going to try to fit in as much as we can, while still leaving plenty of time for rest and recuperation.

The only definite destination is Sydney, where we'll likely use time at the beaches to let our bodies adjust to the time change. From there, we'd like to fit in snorkeling and kayaking in the Great Barrier Reef, hiking on the nearby islands, and maybe even a trip to Melbourne, but we're far from setting things in stone yet. One thing is for sure, which is that this will be an unforgettable trip and we'll have many great stories.

Flights! Of course, we actually have to get to Australia first. Once we're there, we might take a (relatively) quick flight to see different parts of the country.
