2) What do people expect when they visit Australia?
Although it is true that the highest agenda would be taking photo with Kangaroo and Koala , we do not really bother about landscapes. I believe we do know that Australia has amazing scenery but we don't really give them that much attention, i.e. we would not packed our 7-days tour with too much landscape, probably just 1 day, the rest is for cities, wildlife centre, theme park and shopping.

By the way, if you look at the Package tour (arrange be Thai package-tour company), the itinerary will be around the big cities e.g. Canberra for new parliament, Brisbane: for Sea World, and Warner Movie World; Sydney: for Harbour Bridge and Opera House; Perth for umm shopping I think, Then one of the day gotta go to nereast wildlife or national park (Featherdale, Yanchep, Nambung etc.) to see Kangaroo, Koala and other activities like sand boarding, etc. or go to see Three sisters, but the main point is to go in gold mine. They also goes to Melbourne and off to Phillips island for wine tasting. Oh, and they do lots of shopping, too.

In sum, we would expect Australia to look modern and clean. Has good transportation system (i.e. no traffic jam, or people cramped in Buses). Nice sunny but not-too-hot weather. We do expect Australians to be friendly and easy going. And we expect people to say Good Day, instead of Good Morning.
TK, your half way there but if you listen to me I recamend these places, you hear me recamend. lol

Canberra - head up closer to queensland and see the dish. If you like austonamy... but it's also good to see.
Brisbane - Sea World, and Warner Movie World, they are ...okay but Wet and Wild rocks! And if you stay till late they have movies in the big wave pool and if that don't interest you when the movies on there are liturly no line for all the rides! Very good to go in the Summer, it's winter right now... I hate winter.. unless theres ice-skating, which there isn't...
Oh and you have got to see the great barer reef, while it's alive...
Sydney - I agree
Perth - couldn't say, haven't been there
Melbourne - well maybe by then I will have my own clothing line, and I know just what I'll call it.
You should go to Sovereign hill, it's a total reenactment of the "gold rush", You can even look for gold!
The Puff and Billy is good, it's one of the few remaining steam trains in Australia and is over 100 years old! And if you stop as ... something arother lake on the way you can pedal these floating things on the lake.
Phillips island - is good, theres a lot one can do there.

Main I'm getting tired of thinking now.. theres so much else but I'm having a mental blank.. and you said sight seeing isn't the main aeration.
Oh yeah theres Luna park in the city, referring to Melbourne.
