Definitely need to buy TSA locks. If TSA opens them, they usually show a color change in a little window, so you can reset them.
Also, like others have said, load up the kindle - I believe there are also e-versions of quilting books, but there are games and such for the kindle.
Australia is a wonderful country. Have a great time. I visited Cairns a couple of years ago on a cruise. Don't forget it is winter down there - check the country's weather (their weather is opposite of ours), so pack appropriately.
My study abroad program is giving me bright colored tags for my bags.
I leave when it's Spring there. My area happens to be that one area where it doesnt really fall below 55 in the winter or spring, which is cool. I can't wait to go! I'm hoping to get a kindle! Mom has one, but I don't want to take that from her. We'll see.
