Okay, so I spoke too soon about the coffee here. I went for coffee on Monday morning, and the waitress, who was from Canada, explained the different kinds as you can read here if this interests you. I ordered a "flat white" which is an expresso with milk, and it was delicious. So sorry, people of Australia. You really have some good coffee...I was just being a spoiled American.
Melbourne has been having an International Comedy Fest and have televised some of the performances in the evenings...Several jokes about spoiled, stupid Americans (see above paragraph). The TV here is interesting- a combination of Australian and international shows, the American ones on different networks at different times than we're used to, of course. I watched a 'Baywatch' type show the other night-- a documentary about real lifeguards at Bondi beach in Sydney who save multiple lives in a day and manage to have surfing contests amongst themselves in their free time. And they look like a Malibu Ken doll with shiny white teeth and a deep bronze tan.
Not much else going on, I've been studying like a madwoman the past couple days.
