In the spirit of Thanksgiving - I am so thankful for having had the opportunity and experience that I did in Sydney this year. It was an absolute dream of a lifetime. I've been back for just under a month and some of the things I miss and was so thankful to experience were:
- I miss commuting over the Harbour Bridge every morning with a gorgeous view of the Opera House
- Waiting for the sometimes not so timely M-20 bus to get in and out of the city
- That a temperature of 20 degrees was actually warm - ahhh Celsius
- The metric system of measurement and military time
- The delicacies of kangaroo fillet and barramundi
- Tim Tams - especially the mint dark chocolate biscuits
- 7.5 hour work days
- Walking up and down Pacific Highway to get to the closes train station which was 3/4 of a mile away
The chicken pot pie at the Winery in Surry Hills
- White Chocolate Raspberry Gelatto from the little Italian restaurant near Woolworths
- The friendly cashiers at Wollworths
- The ease of domestic air travel
- Constant activities
- And all the great new people I bonded with :)
