Planning an August trip all-over Australia

Hi guys!
Moved to Australia for a year recently (job).
Fantastic country! But still getting used to driving the "wrong side" of the road.
I have a plan of taking a ride all-over the country this summer (to be more specific, in August. I know that here summer season is right now, but I refer to the calendar part of the year, as I got used in Europe), in a big circle. I want to visit biggest cities (Sydney, Brisbane, Darwin, Pert, Adelaide) and as many Natural Parks as possible. Planning 30 days for the trip.
Any advises?
Maybe someone here did the same already? Or maybe someone willing to join?
And what bmw internet forum is the largest in Australia?
Thanks

Edit: nevermind, I read your post again and realized you are already there. D'oh!

Just so you know, summer in Australia is right now. They are in the southern hemisphere. I expect you are aware of that but just making sure.

Yeah, I know I meant "summer" in the way I got used to, not referring to the natural season, but to calendar part of the year.
To be more specific - in August.
Here, actually it's not a big difference in summer and winter, is sort of a Texas weather..
