As far away from Geelong as possible
no just kidding. I quite like Geelong but I went out with one of your Geelong girls once and she was bonkers. Hobart is nice this time of year........ if you like the cold................and the dark.............and not a lot to do. I'd say head to maybe Hamilton Island or Port Douglas |

Pick somewhere upmarket and exclusive. I would recommend bedarra Island (http://www.bedarraisland.com/) as it is very very nice. Or you could go for Lizard Isnland or Herron Island etc.

Warrnambool. I dont care how cold or wet it is at this time of year. Warrnambool would be my first choice.

we asked for a budget but they still did not give one . we have to put three choices together and submit them in a couple of days . I think going overboard would be a problem but still not sure .

2 days is a short stay, so you do not want to spend it all on a plane
Better to do a dirty weekend in Sydney at say the PArk Hyatt or some other 5 star Sydney hotel. Take in the sights, catch a show and enjoy the room.

Depends what you want....
Tourists, theme parks and getting out and about.... Gold Coast, but stay out of the heart of Surfers. Or if youo just want to relax and take it easy for two days.... Margaret River Region or Hunter Valley. Relax and take in some wineries.... can't go wrong. |

Come to the Hunter Valley. You can get flights direct from Melbourne to Newcastle which only takes an hour and half. Then its a 40 minute drive to the wineries etc. Its about 21 deg during the day at the moment!
There are some great sights and some very s****y hotels to stay in. Much better than needing 2 flights in each direction, the waits in between and spending 5 hrs each way in the air... You;ll have much more time for just you two to relax!
