Queensland
Sunshine State down-under
Queensland is a state in northeastern Australia, the country's second-largest by area.
It encompasses tropical rainforests, the Great Barrier Reef, and the Gold Coast tourist region.
Residents are called Queenslanders, and the state is nicknamed the Sunshine State: We spent two weeks in Queensland visiting the reef.
