arrival in Oz
Melbourne
,
Australia
got here. first thing I did after clearing customs was to get a phone.
Funny thing. What I saw on the ride from the airport. A Costco, and a billboard advertising the movie New Moon. Did I really leave the country? the 14 hour flight says so.
Walked around the downtown area. It is very hot, or it seems that way after the frost we've been having. Just cannot get iced tea. McDonalds never heard of such a thing!!!!!
I finally got someone at Hungry Jacks (Burger King to you and I) to give me a hot tea and a cup of ice. Tetly tea to boot, hurrah.
You can get iced coffee and iced chocolate, but not iced tea.
I was able to get the heels on my boots resoled in an hour.
I took some pictures, but not of anything special.
I was tempted to eat at one of the indoor cafeterias, but there were birds flying around inside. (Near the food areas) no thanks.
More later.
