So I'm finaly in Australia. I'm using free wi-fi at McDonalds right now so I'll post pictures when I get to my room in a couple weeks. So here is my airport adventures.
So first of all I get to the Detroit airport and g0t told my tennis bag is too big so I had to stuff everything into my backpack. Crazy because there was a guy with a guitar bag :P. Then I finally get to Chicago and am sitting at the airport and they change my gate so I have to run to the opposite side of the airport. After the 4+ hours flight to L.A. I have to ride this bus thing to the international airport which took me forever to find. I then got to meet two of the three other americans that are going. They both seem really cool. It's going to be a lot of fun. After sitting in the L.A. airport for over 4 hours we finally get to board the plane to Sydney at 10:00 L.A. time. The plane was amazing. We all had our own screens which we could choose between over 100 movies plus play games. I only watched Sherlock Homes because I slept a lot of the way. The plane ride was over 14 hours long but actaully went really fast. There wasn't too many people on the plane so there were extra seats for extra room. So After we touched down in Sydney two days after I left (we left May 3rd and it was May 5th when I arrived) the real fun started. First of all my visa was not completely filled out or something so I had to step asside for a few minutes wile they fixed it. Once I finaly got through customs we had a hour delay which was killer as the three of us were so anxious to get to take a shower and go to bed. Finaly we made it after around 24 hours in an airplane plus over 10 hours in an airport and took a shower. Then got our cells phones and went out to eat. Then we all went to bed at like 8 o'clock local time but we were so tired.
So now it's my first full day and we walked to mcdonald before we go white water rafting :D. The best part is the mcdonalds is right by the ocean so were stopping by there in a few before we head out. Like I said I'll post pics as soon as I can.
Cheers everyone!
