Unlike previous Australia Days, I didn't take part in any flag waving, barbeques, VBs or even renditions of 'Land Down Under.' Pretty lowkey, but for the sake of blogging about my life, here is a synopsis. Keep in mind, while not wildly exciting, these are all fairly quinnesential Australian activities.
- Displayed my Aussie flag on the windowsill, held up by a Padres matchbox ice cream truck.
- Went to Bondi and saw people go into the ocean with inflatable Haviana sandal floaty raft things, completing a world record attempt of some sort.
- Ate a veggie burger at 'Australia's largest vegetarian BBQ.'
- Fought with Vodafone, and got out of my two-year contract with their 'broadband' service
- Watched about two minutes of cricket - that's all I could handle.
- Ran to Bronte, then Tamarama Beach - went for a swim and almost had my shoes and shirt washed away by the Pacific tide.
- Had a kangaroo burger for dinner and watched the Aussie Open tennis
- Ate Tim Tams for dessert
Oye, oye, oye....
