    I know it’s autumn there, but still a cute idea…. an Australia Flad cozzie: http://www.zodee.com.au/swimwear/2-chillies/aussie-flag/
    Recently when some cousins came from Canada I was the same, no idea what to get them… was in a Borders bookstore and found a really cool and funny book of aussie slang! It was cheap and they loved it – such a laugh!

    Opal jewellry is always nice.
    You can get a necklace with a boomerang that has opals on it.

    That is so awesome! I have always wanted to go to Italy! 😀 I would love to have a pen pal there.
    What about a shirt with the Australian flag? I remember on Australia day Supre had nice shirts with the Australian flag on.
    Or what about a boomerang? I wonder how much they cost..
    Or maybe a cute kangaroo or koala toy you find in souveneir shops here ?
    I hope you have heaps of fun there, please tell me how it went because I would love to go there one day 🙂
