Check out the City!
Today is our last morning in our temporary living arrangement - we officially move to our rental house today. We have been going to KMart and the Big W daily to get things for the house and our furniture was delivered on Thursday so it is starting to feel more like home. As of right now we have internet set to be installed on July 11th and cable TV on July 25th - things take A LONG time here compared to the US! We have been visiting the McDonald's near our house periodically where we can get free wireless and check our email. Bryan will head to work on Monday morning but I will have to visit McDonald's daily with Bryan's computer in order to check my email! We have had a fun time trying to navigate the city, learn driving rules, and see some sights but are ready to get settled for awhile.
AUSTRALIAN EDUCATION: When referring to the TRUNK of the car - you call it the BOOT.
More about TROLLEYS . . . the wheels on the trolleys here don't just have front steering wheels - the rear wheels steer as well. This makes for quite an interesting workout at you attempt to steer a cart!
FUNNY STORY: We keep seeing people with NEBRASKA sweatshirts on and so while at McDonald's Bryan decided to ask someone where they got it. He got his at KMart and then proceeded to ask Bryan if it was a place in London! The poor soul was very misguided and didn't realize he was supporting the greatest college football team in the US!!

You're rockin with the blogger! :) I showed Ben this morning- we can't believe that they sell NE s-shirts in Aus....must be the left-overs....I'm sure you haven't seen any ISU s-shirts! Those were all bought here in the US by Cylcone fans!

You should have gotten his name and invited him over to a Husker party this fall!
