Difference of Australia and USA

Well there's many differences however one big one is the way the cars drive. I am getting pretty use to looking the right way now, but i dont know if i can even count how many times i've almost got ran into by a car. I also still sometimes get in the car on the right, and then i remember that, that is also opposite. Well another big difference is they have breakfast, lunch and tea. Which is very strange when you first hear it, because i was invited to go with my friend to this restruant, and my host mum was saying that i was going out to tea with sophie and her family. i was like okay sweet! and then i went there and then later was confused as to why there was no tea. Tea doesn't mean having tea, it means dinner. so if your asked have you had tea? they're really asking if you've had dinner yet. They have these things called chips, which aren't really chips, they're fries. however they also have fries like you can get at mcdonalds (called macca's here.) So chips are fries but they have a chicken flavored salt on them. They are SOOO good, the best fries EVER!!! no joke!

There's so many more differences that i cant really think of off the top of my head but i'll post them up when i think of them.

Well this weekend is my first rotary weekend, and i'm so excited! i get to meet all the other inbound students that i'll be going on the ski trip, and many other trips with. Which includes the Rock to reef, or whatever its called, but the trip around australia. Which i cannot wait for!
