Australians.....who is...

[mistakenstrangers]

hilarious, your accent sounds just like us, but more evil

Either way, the both of us still have trouble getting understood by American's. I find myself putting on my faux American accent often, or just pointing and things and acting like english is my second language.

[Emma Ocean]

rrreally?!
sounds like I'm going to have a lot of fun then! I leave for the States tomorrow! I'm excited

[mistakenstrangers]

It's not as bad as I made it sound, but some of them just have this 'WUT?' look on their face when you talk to them.

Ahh EXCITING! I leave on Wednesday, NYC bound first, layover in LA. Can't wait to be back. Flying your national airline, which I hope will not drop out of the sky or something.

[Emma Ocean]

I'll keep my fingers crossed for ya

Considering you spend half of your day getting anywhere on a bus/sitting in traffic, he'll need that shit load of time in LA. ha

[Emma Ocean]

I'm here! Wo0oo

[summerkid]

There is a heap of good American micro-brews...for sure.

This is my favorite, its local to San Diego too. If you like hops this is the beer for you.

[wazdog]

Hell yeah!!!

[Sizzurp]

I assume that means you're DTF?

Yes, I am Dark, Transexual AND Fat (Also known as a Tubby Twinkie Triple Threat).

...And who was the guy that said Sam Adams is good? Jesus Christ... It tastes like Piss and Pepper. Anything from Rogue breweries is good and Sierra Nevada is ok. Malt Liquor is better than Sam Adams.... I think it is summed up in the other thread where Americans are complaining about Heineken... Each to their own but oh dear....

[Duvel]

Malt Liquor isn't better than Sam Adams.

IMHO......fellow Aussie

[Duvel]

Let's party.

[mistakenstrangers]

and play AFL apparently

[wazdog]

in the words of dilated peoples 'back again for the very fourth timeeee!'

the amount of AFL jerseys about last year was ridiculous!

[mistakenstrangers]

The amount of Australians with Australian flag singlets and stubbie coolers was ridiculous

edit: is always ridiculous

[wazdog]

we've been attempting to teach the safari campers touch footy over the last few years. think we might bring over a beach cricket set this year!

In a good or bad way? Was thinking of taking my Swans jersey but I don't wanna be that guy.

[wazdog]

not a bad way just lots of them about. last year we there was 3 of us running around in swans jerseys on the saturday as we were playing the cats that day!

[mistakenstrangers]

[wazdog]

Oh we can play that game too you know

PS. Aussie dollar is up to $1.07 against the US dollar today. This trip is going to be cheaper than last year!

[Interwebz]

I heard them say it might get to $1.10 again, though I'm not sure if that will be before April.
Either way, I don't think it was even over 75c when I went in 09 so I'm happy either way.

[wazdog]

12 sleeps till we fly out. So pumped!

[mistakenstrangers]

Damn you and your strong dollar. Ours is $0.82 at the moment, which isn't as bad as it has been on previously trips a la 69c

[JupiterJ]

Just sticking my head in here - cbf reading the whole thread, but there's a group of 7 of us coming over from Aust. - all but one of us will be Lake Eldorado.

I'm flying out this Sat - sooooo pumped!!!
