Gettin' Round Town




Since I have arrive I have found that buying a "Travel 10" pass is by far the easiest way to get around. The travel tell lets you ride the bus 10 times. It cost $15, and then I buy train tickets separately. The money here is great. It's seems to fly out of your wallet. It is almost like Monopoly money, but turns out it is ACTUAL money. On the days that I am lucky Mike will pick me up and drive me around. Driving on the other side of the road is crazy! I always walk to the wrong side of the car to get in. I am not sure if i will ever get used to seeing cars coming at me from the other side of the road. I flinch every time.

  1. Jeff! It's Aimee. The money is definitely Monopoly money - don't be fooled. And the coins are totally game tokens.

    Words of wisdom: always have your train ticket on you, even if you're exiting the platform. If not, there's always the possibility that you'll be coming back into Sydney from a comedy show and some douchey transit cop will bust you with a fat fine that you probably won't ever pay but it's a complete annoyance to your life and will still annoy you from half a world away when you get back to the states. I mean, I'm speaking hypothetically, of course...

    Other than that, go to Pancakes on The Rocks in the harbor. Best. Damn. Pancake. Selection. Ever.

    Cheers!
