fabulousflygirl, if you find a great fare to Sydney, let me know and I'll have an excuse to take you wine tasting from here.

Check out the West forum as there are many great LAS Dos. The LV gang (and those crazy Hawaiians) are great fun and I'm sure would have some fun dinners!

I had the great pleasure to have a mini-Do dinner with such a crazy Hawaiian and his lovely partner, and an equally mile-running fun Aussie couple, both well-known here. All of us Aussies at that dinner have repeated the fun dinners in Hawaii and are trying to do similar in other cities.

Why did I mention this? At the Sydney dinner we had a Fantastic Tasmanian Pinot Gris.
I'll head across to the famous Oz Fest (ozstamps is an institution on FT...he'll likely read this...) and hope to get to the winery, as the wine is only sold to resturants and at the cellar door.
I'll try to bring some home for future Dos.

Each of these Aussie miles-crazy FTers will be in NYC at some time, from one of our excellent fares and I hope that we can meet up with some of the really fun NYers, who are also big on food and wine.

Check out dhammer53's famous Brooklyn Reality Tour Do and the follow-up Wine Do. Maybe you can be the representative of us Aussies who hope to be there later this year.

Aloha kaukaus, tinkybelles, glenntwenty and dhammer53!
