Huss im from Wollongong tho i live in sydney nowdays, you can actully get a flight from Melbourne to Albion Park Airport which is about 20 mins away from wollongong city im sure you will like wollongong city 2 make shure you check out the beaches the nightife isnt to bad either but its nothing like what you guys have down in melbourne id also recomend heading to jamberro recraction park as its become quite a fun little park with a good selection of water rides and a really fun tobbogan run
ride the zipper!!

Bloody hell! He's already looking at another ride!? I suppose charging 10 - 15 dollars a pop with No Limit would make a rather hefty profit. I wont be heading down to Bateman's this year, and I don't think I'm heading to Coffs this year (still undecided) but I'm interested in seeing the Music Trip upgrade because it was already an amazing attraction with intense forces!

I am really looking forward to your review. And it could have been fun seeing No Limit going down the Clyde Mountain to Bateman's Bay :shock: I'm not the best with Geography but is there any mountains coming down from Sydney, and down through Nowra and Ulladulla? Maybe No Limit could have gone down via that route.
