Mim: Thanks for your reply. Wow, already seeing the friendliness of Aussies and I haven't even gotten there yet!! I am scheduled to arrive Brisbane early on July 7, whale watch tour is July 8 and I leave out early July 10. (Australia Zoo is not scheduled yet) Would love to meet up with a local and I appreciate the offer and look forward to meeting you.

Hi BarBan
I've sent you a PM. See you soon!
