Hey – tourists in the USA; national parks closed? Come to Australia, ours are open!

OK, just to interrupt FX for a moment.

Any tourists in the US looking for a bit of national park action? Jump on a plane to Australia. Within 90 minutes of Sydney airport you can be in the Blue Mountains National Park. Just don’t go wandering off the marked paths, people get lost in there and never come out, some areas of it are that remote. Great area.

And it just gets better from there, there are hundreds of parks to explore. While you are down in this part of the world, head over to New Zealand as well – spectacular national parks there too.

Never let it be said I don’t do anything for our tourism industry.
