So unfortunately, I might not be able to post pictures till I get home since I have been taking pictures at the highest resolution and for some reason (I am looking at you webmaster) I can’t upload any pictures or save comments or anything.. so you’ll have to hear more about my trip without seeing any of it at the moment.

A small compiled list of things:

a. My favorite line of the trip so far; “Linguistically, Australia is the laziest of all English speaking countries.”

Remind me to start every sentence with the word, Linguistically.

b. (Linguistically) in the last 24 hours I have eaten:
four coffees, vegemite (like a salty butter, pretty anticlimatic), calamari, beer, beer and some more Australian beer. Toohey’s and Coopers mostly.

I also ate a “meat pie” from this famous place called Harry’s. here’s the LINK. it looked like a cupcake with the cream on top being mashed potatoes and the cream on very tippy top being mashed peas. not to mention the inside of the cupcake looking thing was chicken and mushrooms. yeah. exactly.

it was surprisingly good.

c. I did a double decker tour bus thingy of Syndey. I found out that Darling Harbor said in an Australian accent sounds not so fun when it’s said over and over. It would phonetically be pronounced “Dah LINGGG HAH BAH” it’s truly nightmare inspiring.

d. things I learned so far:

1. an slutty guy or girl is called a “slapper” but it’s mostly of English origin
2. a bridge and tunnel type is called a “westie”
3. australians love.. the Australian Ass Crack. the AAC. rock that shit everywhere. I have seen more ass crack in two days than one man should in a lifetime. (that being said, Geoff is the biggest offender of them all)
4. trying to install a dryer at midnight drunk is a bad idea no matter what hemisphere you are in.

more teachings soon..

e. Sydney is really beautiful and their ‘winter’ is way better than any other winter I have experienced in my life. If you come here, you must see Bondi and Rose Bay and Paddington.

so tomorrow morning I will be going to Cairns (the Great Barrier Reef). I have to get up at 5am for the 3 hour flight. More flights?? Bets on me not making it??
