Things that must be done in the land down-under
- You must see the All-Blacks vs The Wallabies (Australia vs NZ Rugby, in Australia, Aug 22, 2009)
- Find out if the toilets really do flush Clockwise (rather than Counter clockwise as in the States)
- Go to the Sydney Opera House
- See a Kangaroo in the wild
- Get an accent
- Get a Boomerang
- Eat Vegemite sandwiches
- Do a Tim Tam Slam (Tim Tam's and Milo drink. Bite of each end of the cookie and drink Milo through it like a straw)

this is a phenomenal to do list. love it. and, in fact, i say we all go to that rugby game!
Great list, Mate! Love you Joe!
The rugby game sounds awesome. I would love to go. I hope our kids get an accent, and I am pretty sure Don will pick it up. I don't think Don will be able to help it. He was in London for a week and started picking up a British accent!!
And Joe, could you clarify what vegemite is? I know the name, but don't have a clue what it is...

Joe,
That is one of the best posts ever. Well done!
Love,

So Vegemite is a Sandwich spread like Peanut Butter, or Marmalade, but it is made out of concentrated yeast. It is a National favorite food, but is characterized by it's strong taste. Try with caution. also don't forget to click the links for Tim Tam Slam's. They gives more information.
please post the answers when you know. I am curious!
vegemite is nasty! this post is awesome. and i want a tim tam slam!
Love the instructional video. I'm going to look online and see where I can buy some. I could go for some HobNobs right now, too. :)

I've tried the vegemite. (Not a winner in my humble opinion) Kind of like spreading a yeast dip on your bread. Don't think it will win the kids over :)
