We arrived in Sydney today and are experiencing some culture shock. The city has more people than the entire country of New Zealand. So far the Aussies are brusque, impatient and not inclined to be helpful. The city center where we are staying is crazy busy and a bit overwhelming. You can't walk a block without hearing twenty different languages and seeing an amazing array of characters. Everyone smokes here so half the people on the street are drinking coffee and smoking. The other half are walking at warp speed because they are so wired on coffee and cigarettes. This has to be one of the all time great people watching places.

Check you gmail account - I sent you some pictures. I'm thinking I would like to go to New Zealand - it looks like the kind of place I would love!
I am sorry we missed your call! Try again and I will keep my phone near around 9:00pm. Why don't you just stay there and that will force us to come up with a way to get to Australia to visit!
