This is Entry 109: Vacation!

Well, I lied to you Jim Nation: I did not Blog from down under. But I have my reasons: Blogger was blocked on the Computer I was using, I didn't feel like paying money to get on a Computer, Didn't have time & a few other reasons so that's why there was not a post from there but do expect a post(s) about what I did on my Month trek around the underside of our great planet. I have a little over thousand & half photos to sort through. Once sorted Pic's will be posted.

As stated in Entry 107, I had a list of things I wanted to do:

While Down Under, there a few things I personally want to do which might be slightly geeky/odd:
1. Go to an Australian Comic Book Store & buy some Australian, not found in the U.S., Comics.
2. Go to a Grocery Store & just wonder around to see what it's like. What's the same, what's different, etc.
2a. Find Vegemite & see what it is. Not necessary buy some to eat (I hear it tastes nasty) but at least find some to see what it is.

Well, 1 sort of happened. I did find a Comic book store, a few in fact but didn't find any real "Australian" comics because they don't really exist not the market for it. All the comics I found were either shipped from the U.S. or Comics repackaged for the Australian market. More my Comic Book finds later & my major find! 2 I did & was much all there different with only a few things that made me wonder (Lime Milk?) 2a I did & eat it a few times. I was told how properly eat said food product from a local (my tour director).

Something else I wanted to see but didn't list was: see water flow in the wrong direction down the toilet: I didn't. The pot didn't flow in a smooth motion to see it. I did see a fountain do it so I guess that I could csay I saw it but just not how I wanted it to.

I saw 3/4th of the OZ (Australia) & a chunk of "The Long White Cloud" (New Zealand). More stuff on those places later on.

Until next time: Stay Jazzy!
