Fletchers Holiday Diary

Money, notes are all the same colour.
Drive on the other side of the road.
They have 4 way stop signs. Who ever arrives first at these stop signs goes first.
Lot more people smoke.
More bike riders both motor and bicycles.
Not much in the way of police presence on the freeways.
A lot more idiotic drivers speeding and overtaking in extremely unsafe circumstances.
Wholefoods Markets, supermarket that only sells organic and fresh healthy food.
Lot more homeless people.
They don't have pies, pasties or sausage rolls. Canada has sausage rolls.
The supermarkets only have beef, pork and chicken. Plus a very small range of sausages.
They have really lovely cake displays in all supermarkets. See picture on opposite page.
Jet lag coming home hit harder than when we arrived. Proof of this in the picture to the right.
