I Come From a Land Down Under!

Thursday, July10, 2008- Friday, July 11, 2008

Today Jayne and Wendy met me for lunch and then after I got off work I met up with them to check out New Town. Thursdays are the days shops stay open later than the usual 5 or 6 so we were just going to check out the stores. Everything was really expensive, so we had a quick look around and then went home so Michel could come over and visit. Michel is the guy we are renting the apartment from that was super helpful in getting us over here and settled. That was pretty much our night, and we ended it with our favorite, so you think you can dance, via youtube.

Friday I came home from work and we decided to go out to a dinner and try to catch a movie at the theater. We went to Guzman y Gomez, one of the only Mexican chains in Australia. It was okay, but nothing compared to Mexican in the states. All of us ordered really spicy burritos so our mouths were on fire for a bit after dinner.

We then went to the Bondi Junction movie theater and went to Hancock, the movie with Will Smith, which I thought was a let down. We ended the night by staying up literally all night so we could figure out all the money we had been swapping before going on our three week adventure and pack for the trip.
