I figured I should bring lots of snacks...I already mentioned I have a 12 year-old son...need I say more? So, what food travels well, and doesn't take up much space or weight? (Besides trail mix!)
Feebs: Actually, I won't be spending any time in Sydney (tho I had a great time there last time). I'm going straight on to Tasmania, to Hobart. I'm getting married

Congratu;ations..I hope it all goes well.

As for food..I wouldn't worry about taking too much, they feed you pretty well on those flights. If you do take anything remember to dump it in the quarantine bins when you get off the plane.

Australia has some pretty strict quarantine rules and the hassle of having an officer check your food to see if it's allowed in is very time consuming..and frankly not worth it. They seem to have gotten really tough on checking things lately..worse than I have ever seen them.
