Christmas in summer is confusing.

Three days ago it was dark at 8am still, and the sun went down about 4pm.  I was awoken at 5am, by blazing sun.  It is strange to hear PSAs about how Christmas is Pool Safety Season.

Look kids…..Big Ben.  Well not really, but this is 7:50am.

I found an amazing little breakfast spot.  You can play giant chess, or sit by the fountain, or go to the amazing Boxing Day sale.

Sourdough toast, scrambled eggs with feta cheese, chorizo, and wild greens. It was delicious, but this plus a coffee was 23$A, with the exchange rate, that is $23.

Tasmania is named after Abel Tasman.

I think he was some sort of elf, look how small his boats were.

Still haven’t been to the Hope & Anchor in El Paso, TX, but was able to go to the oldest pub in Australia.
