How
the Two of You Can Be Outback Jack and Jill
For
television viewers who follow Outback Jack, the reality show which
takes pampered women and puts them in pursuit of a man in the
middle of Australia's rugged Outback, the Outback looks like a
rough and rugged destination. It is -- but, for many couples,
it's also an adventure trip waiting to happen.
If
you'd like to plan a romantic getaway to the Outback (and you're
not worried about breaking a nail), here are a few leads to get
you started:
by
Eleanor S. Morris Even before Crocodile Dundee, just about everyone
had heard of the Australian outback. And what a wild, adventurous
place it is, what with kangaroos and wallabies, brilliant birds
and platypuses, aborigine caves and deepset gorges.Although
much of the outback consists of dry plains dotted with sparse
vegetation, in the center of Queensland you'll find a dense
green oasis, thick with lush plants and alive with an exotic
assortment of birds and animals: Carnarvon Gorge, one of Australia's
most magnificent parks.
