Oi!

Surfers Paradise, Australia


Made it out of Thailand, and I'm now kicking it safely in the tourist trap of Surfer's Paradise. I spent a couple nights in Sydney, driving on the
wrong side of the road and working the jetlag out of the system.

Along the way up the coast I bought the most beat up shortboard I could find. I've only had it in the water once, and got thoroughly worked as a
reward. It's cool not having to wear ten pounds of neoprene to avoid hypothermia, but I sure don't float to the surface as quickly without it.

And for the record, the toilets do indeed flush in the other direction, and the moon is oriented entirely the wrong way. All in all, good times are
being had.
