100 things to see and do in Australia (contd.)
If you saw our previous ad, you’ll recall we had room for only 32 items. So:
33. Join a crowd over one hundred thousand strong at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. A friendly Aussie will translate terms like silly mid-on, googly, leg glance, stump, outswinger, gully and sticky wicket.
34. Yield to temptation. Eat a passion fruit.
35. Change your perspective on art. See Australia through the eyes of painters like Drysdale, Nolan, Whitely, and Dobell. At the National gallery of Victoria.
36. Dine on broiled Tasmanian Lobster. Better split an order. They weigh in at up to 4 pounds apiece.
37. Shoot crocodiles and wild buffalo in the Northern Territory. With a camera, please.
38. Take a train through a spectacular tropical rain forest. Board the Cairns-Kuranda narrow gauge railway for a bobbydazzler of a ride.
39. If you’re a beer man we recommend the Darwin Stubbie. The bottle holds more than 76 ounces of amber brew.
40. Fly to summer this winter. Or vice-versa. Because the seasons are upside-down Down Under.
41. Fossick for fiery black opals at Lightening Ridge near Walgett.
42. Or buy your opals from a miner. Look up Willie the Fly, German Harry, Castro or one of their mates.
43. Marvel at Harold Hodge’s Sunday best teeth. The uppers are solid opal. They’re on display at the Diggers’ Rest Hotel.
44. Pack a picnic for a day at the races. At the Bong Bong bush track, top hats, morning suits, couturier dresses and champagne are mandatory.
45. Order an Aussie favorite for breakfast: a juicy sirloin steak topped with a fried egg.
46. Aborigine legend has it there were three sisters named Meeni, Wimlah and Gunedoo who were turned into stone for their misdeeds. You can visit the Three Sisters at Katoomba in the Blue Mountains.
47. Take a peek at a platypus. That’s a duck-billed, beaver-tailed, web-footed, furry critter that builds a nest at the end of a tunnel, lays eggs, suckles its young and looks like it was designed by some drunken committee.
48. Meet at the handsome Marble Bar, for more than 75 years a stand-up, two-fisted drinking establishment for men only. Then they tore down the old joint, carefully preserved the bar and built a towering hotel around it. And ladies, you’re welcome.
49. Stomp a grape. Come to the Barossa Valley Wine Festival at vintage time. Step lively, the best grapetreader wins a prize.
50. Take a picture of an Aborigine taking a picture of you.
51.  And in the center of our big cities you can watch ladies lawn bowling in prim and proper white. The compeititon is fierce.
52. This is for the birds. Emus, lorikeets, willy wagtails, galahs. More than 600 birds you’ll never see until you see Australia.
53. Try hard and there’s a chance you may get the last laugh on a kooka-burra, the bird that laughs just like you.
54 to 100. They’re in our big, new Qantas Australia Tour Book. It’s free. Mail the coupon or see your Travel Agent. Because the odds are 100 to 1 you’ll find lots to see and do Down Under.
