down under time

Photobucketit was pretty amazing flying over the pacific ocean this morning. in the boeing 747 we were flying 900 mph away from the sunrise which made it last for about 2 hours. for those of you concerned with the trials of my ear explosions, as i expected the decent into san francisco was again the most painful of my life (sorry marco i chewed a whole pack of gum and it didn't do anything). almost luckly though i don't think i re-pressurized before i was in the air again so that made the sydney decent alot less painful. fyi about 3 hours to san fran 14 hours to sydney not quite 20 but long enough.

so now i'm set up at nomad's maze hostel, and honestly after that long a flight , jet lag setting in, maybe an hour sleep, this place is huge and very much a confusing maze. seems to be alright though.

oh yeah , get this. so right before i leave cow town with my buddy rich, the car we're riding around in gets towed! luckly my bags and passport we're yet to be loaded in. all i am missing is my last paycheque and the international DL i got that day. oh well it'll all work out and could have been much worse.
