Finnally Here!

4+:45+6+8.5+4+9.5= the hours it took me get to Sydney from Tel Aviv. It was not a quick trip. I got to spend some quality time at Amman, the airport in Jordan. The food selection there was amazing, Popeye's chicken, Pizza Hut, Starbucks, and a some random sandwich shop. I couldn't believe these were my food choices. Everything was written in english and everyone I encountered spoke english as well. The abundance of english deffinalty made the 6 hours I got to spend there berarble. Then I made my way to Bankok airport. Eveything was in English as well. When I arrived I found out I had a small visa problem but it was quickly resolved. The airport was huge, maybe 10 times the size of Amman. After exploring the airport a little and browsing the duty free shops I made a point to eat some Thai food while I was in Thailand even if it was going to be airport food. I found a cute little thai place and ordered. In New York my meal that was searved on a real plate with silverware probally would of cost around $12. However, I think I spent about the equivilent of $3. I love the exchange rate! After my expensive meal I proceded to get ready for the second leg of my journey. BEcuase I had already slept on the previos flight and had technically woken up about 4 hours ago sleeping on the next leg of the flight was going to be a little harder. A movie, half a book and a sleeping later I managed to get about 4 hours of sleep on the flight. It was better then nothing.
Finnally I arrived in Sydney!!!!! I went strait to Andrea's new apt in Bondi Beach. It is very cute. It was a little rainy tuesday so instead of beaching we did some work on her apt. Andrea and her roommate Meaghan now have bed frames, pots and pans and a little frig! We spent the day puttering, exploring and planning the rest of week. We made the best of a rainny day.
I can't wait to go explore the sights, hit the beach, meet some Aussie's....
