William and kate honeymoon down under could boost tourism

Prince William and his bride-to-be, Kate Middleton, may make Australia the destination for their royal honeymoon, a prospect that has tourism officials down under ready to fire up their barbies, according to The Telegraph.

"I love scuba diving. I have always wanted to dive the [Great] Barrier Reef," said Prince William to the international press as he promised to boost business and tourism in disaster-prone areas of Australia.

"I will have to come back – maybe we'll have a honeymoon in Cairns." said the Prince according to The Telegraph.

The prince's decision could be an economic boom for the tourism industry in the areas still recovering from cyclone Yasi.
