True G especially the Outback.
Even the ocean with rip currents, sharks and other predators.

Arid land and choppy seas. Regardless,Oz is still a great place to visit.

You got nine months to save your $$$'s. :smt043
Agreed. After reading the book In A Sunburned Country by Bill Bryson and Tracks by Robin Davidson. I was hooked.
Of course, you have to determine how long your stay will be. The issue of housing is important. Will you be staying in a hotel, motel-efficiency, hostel or will you rent a furnished apartment? Add round-trip air faire and then you will know how much money to save.

That's a long flight from the east coast. I would have to stay a weekend in Hawaii. Then head that way. Stay in Australia for two weeks, then spend another two days in Hawaii on the way back. We talking 10,000 miles. lol

I would think that the women there are worth it.
Plus you get to rack up those frequent flier miles lol.
Quantas Airlines has non-stop flights to Australia leaving from San Francisco. Passengers will be flying in the Airbus A380.

Lmao! Honey the only thing that will kill you over here is the women's eyes all over you! You have nothing to be scared of. Kevin Hart was just talking crap about Oz haha. Just don't go in the water at the beach and you ll be fine. ?
And watch out for Crocodiles in the billabongs. And venomous snakes. I haven't heard Kevin Hart's comedic observations of Australia. Honestly, he isn't that funny, in my opinion. In the film Soul Plane, everyone was funnier than he was. It was the same thing when he was in Get Hard. Will Ferrell carried the movie.

And the cassowaries. And the drop bears. Why does everyone forget about the drop bears?

Haha. The only place you'll really come across any crazy reptiles etc will be at the zoo. Same will the Koalas.

Seems legit...
Haha. Yuck! Trust me. Unless you're trekking through the rainforest you are not going to get bitten by a spider. During my 30 years of life in Australia I've been bitten by ONE asshole spider. Stay in the city. You'll be safe.
The Bird Eater spider is the biggest spider in the world, so far. As big as a steering wheel or a dinner plate. Honestly, I'like to see the rain forest as well as the bush, the outback and Uluru(Ayer's Rock). And those waterfalls.
