Australian honeymoon - any ideas?

[razza]

We're looking at Australia for Honeymoon end of July/start of August, couple of q's for anyone that's been:

1) Should we go straight there or stop of somewhere like Hong Kong? If going straight there does it seriously kill you for a couple of days?

2) Being winter down south we're aiming on spending most time up North, any recommendations on where to stay on and places to visit/trips to do? Am thinking of Mai Tai or Pennisula Boutique hotel in Port Douglas, or maybe Bloomfields...?

3) Is it worth going to Ayers rock?

4) What to do and see in Sydney?

5) Where to stay in Sydney, thinking the Shangri-la?

Cheers guys:)

australia is a beutifull country. ive been there twice so far.

if i were you i would do a stopover either in hong knog or singapore. the flight is a killer otherwise.

sydeny is a lovely city lots to see lots to do.

the harbour bridge climb for one(i proposed to my missus on the top of the bridge ;) )
the opera house
manly beach
the revolving restuarant.

a lovely place to be the bars also stay open till 6 in the morning then reopen at 9 in the morning:eyebrows:

never went to ayers rock so cant advise on that one.

as to up north then definatley have a stay in cairns, if you can dive the great barrier reef trust me you wont forget it. its amazing.

when we went to sydney we stayed with friends so i cant advise on places to stay either sorry.

if you need any more help then ask and ill see if i can help.

have a good one :D
