I've Arrived!

I'm finally in Australia.  I made in in yesterday.  The flights were insane.  At every stopover my ticket was incorrect so the airline would have to issue me a new one and it always took forever so I never got a break.  I would sit and sit on crowded plane then fight the airline that I'm supposed to be on the next flight and finally I'd be running it board the next flight on which I would sit and sit.  At least my suitcases made it with me (the airline forgot my friend's suitcase in LA).  One thing that didn't make it with me, though, is my cell phone - I lost it on the flight from NY to LA (go figure!).  Hopefully my dad can get it mailed to NJ - (Thanks Abba!).
Oh - and the flights didn't have kosher food for me - but I had cheerios and chocolate.  I was going to have some Dunkin Donut stuff - like a coffee roll I really wanted - but of course when I went to the 24 hour Dunkin near my home it was closed for renovations - I took a picture to prove it on my cell phone! 
I've also come across 2 people already that will be studying at the Uni of Mel - pretty decent!
Well it's friday here - I totally slept in while my friends went out and now I'm home alone.  One of them should be back shortly.
And I went out last night to town - we went to this frozen yogurt place called igloo zoo - at first I thought we were really going to a zoo and was uber excited and then let down.  The yogurt place was actually frozen yogurt though - it didn't taste like ice cream at all.  We then wandered down a river in Mel called the Yara river and crossed a funky bridge. And I most definitely forgot my camera at friends house for all of this!
I'll write again soonish.

  4. I love Jen's comment. It is quite appropriate.

    Perhaps you should check your e-mail because maybe someone found your phone and wants to meet up with you to give it back....oh wait no that was the last time you lost your phone. Hee hee hee.

    Glad you're having fun and getting out and about.

    Pictures would be nice!
