I'm working in Australia on a temporary company transfer. Of course I want to see as much of Australia as I can while I am there, and I'm already planning a trip to Queensland and the Great Barrier Reef.

Several people have told me that instead of devoting all my vacation time to Astralia, I should plan at least one trip to New Zealand. I'm wondering if that is a good idea. Or whether I should stick with my original plan to see as much of Australia as possible.
