It's a Wrap

So a conundrum.  I left on January 14 at 2:40.  We had a sunset and sunrise in Rube plane and I arrived at LAX at 10 am on January 14. So did I have a Bill Murray moment and live there 14that twice,  or a 40 hour day?  Of course,  on the easy over, I missed January 1stay completely.  Oh,  the joy of crossing the international date line.

So I've decided to end with a list of what I will and won't miss.

Will:
Australia's domestic airport security
Free public transportation.
Australia and Aussies.
Summer and warm weather.
The people I meet from all over the world.

Won't:
All the ladies wearing gauzy, see-through clothes.  I just don't get it.
Figuring out a city just as it's time to leave.
Looking all over for free Wi-Fi.
Walking everywhere
How expensive food is.  McDonald's hamburger: $3, bottle of water: $4. Lunch at restaurants: $15-$20. (unless it's "take-away" , what they call "to go",  then $8-$15).

By the way, from January 4, Bingo Beach entry,  rocket is what the Australians call Arugula (thank you google).  It's a spicy leaf that the Australians seem to love.

Well that's it.  Hope you enjoyed going to Australia with me.  I sure enjoyed having you along
