Angela and Oliver enjoying their first Fijian sunset together at Takali restaurant at Shangri-La Yanuca Island, Fiji
Bula! In case you can’t tell by my ever-so-subtle greeting, I’ve recently returned from Fiji. It was my first overseas trip in four years, and boy it felt good to be travelling internationally again! You can read my story in this issue. Canberra is a popular destination at this time of year, making a great stopover on the way to or from the snow for Sydneysiders. There’s so many cool museums and galleries in the nation’s capital – check out our story to help plan your visit. On a recent stay at BIG4 Gold Coast Holiday Park, we got thinking about how much this type of travel has changed over the years. It sparked our story about the evolution of the humble caravan park, which we hope you will find as fascinating as we did. You can also read about a road trip to Uluru, expat tips for a family holiday in Bali, and the best places to eat stay and play in beachside Coogee. You can click on all these stories and more via the links below. Happy reading!
