best camping place in qld image

Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, or Adelaide? I am interested in seeing the Sydney Opera House and the Harbor Bridge. However, I'm kind of attracted to Melbourne more. I want to see the South Bank Promenade, the Yarra River, Eureka Tower, and Melbourne Cricket Ground. If you were a young American bachelor who just graduated from college, and you had nothing to lose, where in Australia would you venture to?
Sorry! I forgot to include Canberra, Darwin, Hobart, and Gold Coast in the mix.
Answer
honestly - take a road trip. Go & see the big things in Sydney, then go to the ACT to see Canberra - visit the War Memorial, really sad but interesting, then take a trip to Melb to see the things you wanna see, go to the GRAMPIANS - REALLY pretty, and great for hiking, camping etc, then take a trip around the great ocean road, take the ferry to Tasmania, come back & continue around through Adelaide, check out the Murray River & towns along there, go through WA - go down to the south of WA, very pretty, go through Perth, around the top of WA, then hit the northern territory and check out there, don't miss Uluru & Alice Springs, then finish off in QLD and the Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast!!

Where can I find a affordable place for a wedding reception in Houston, TX?
Mel
The wedding is going to be the first weekend of September and I'm looking for something under $1000. I want it to have a dance floor and we don't need them to cater. Thanks
Answer
I am sorry - I dont know Houston but I do know about finding an affordable wedding reception place!
Think outside the box!!
1. ring local council - they should be able to give you a list of halls and other function centres that they have available for hire. Some of these places may even be in Parks but they can arrange a liquor licence. (i am in australia sorry - if these arent exactly true in your area, but you get the idea)
2. Google halls for hire. You might find a private hall eg dance studio, church, CWA, school (most of these could be under council), clubs (scouts etc)
* I actually found a choir hall this way and they had everything we needed -awesome. Just that the toilets were outside - which we decided to not go with...
They did theatre restaurant there too.
3. Tourist INformation Centre sometimes have brochures on places that could work...
4. Group Camps - or holiday places - they usually have a large hall on site with full kitchen. People can stay on-site or in nearby accommodation.
5. Government buildings / heritage buildings ..see below
6. Theatres. Local theatre groups where they have theatre restaurants you know they have a kitchen and bar facilities.
7. Google Conference Centres / Group Accommodation / Family Retreat. This is how we found our wedding venue. (we are getting married in august). I found a few awesome places under this category search. Some very nice but too expensive or not suitable for our group. Some with accommodation and some with only single bed onsite accommodation but motels etc nearby. One place was a pony camp / conference centre .
The place where we are getting married is actually owned by Qld Government. During week it is an Outdoor Training Facility and conference centre but on weekends they hire out the facilities for private functions. We get tables, chairs, tablecloths, cutlery, crockery, glasses etc, even a mobile coolroom, outdoor gas heaters, industrial kitchen, separate conference room for all the kids to relax and watch movies, a marquee area, a large grassed area and a large undercover area with weather shields. All for $226 - plus we have it from Friday arvo till Sunday arvo!!! Government dont work weekends so no staff / people watching over us..
We found a caterer through word of mouth (excellent value) and we can BYO alcohol etc.
There are some conference centres and function centres (and even retreat style accommodation) which offer their kitchen and their caterer or find your own caterer - some dont like it - different laws.
Good luck and have fun searching. Always talk to people. I found so much info from talking to different people and remembering there are only "six degrees of separation"
