LA and I made it back from Australia in one piece.
We didn't
- Have too many near-death experienes driving 250 miles on the left side of the road.
- Get our asses kicked by the freakin' big kangaroo's in the wild.
- Get bitten by any venomous arachnids.
- See any snakes other than at the zoo.
- Drink any Fosters or XXXX.
- Understand some of the Aussie lingo "t'av'ere or t'go?".
We did
- Have to deal with a crying baby on our flight for 10hrs going there.
- Irritate some people by maxing out the overhead compartment space above our seats. First come, first served... Ya snooze, ya lose!... Freakin' awesome!
- See Koala bears up close, see them walking around (rare because they sleep 20hrs/day!), and see them leap from tree to tree (they can do that over short distances, but it takes a 20hrs of downtime to muster up the motivation).
- Overdose on chocolate at multiple visits to Max Brenner.
- Ride a sketchy rollercoaster at Luna Park (near-death experience).
- Fall asleep at the Sydney Opera House... Between us I think we caught the entire Pearlfishers show.
- Survive a sketchy cave "adventure" tour with some damn tight spaces.
Busy typing up a monster blog entry about the trip along with various photos... Stay tuned.
