Interesting challenge when you only had shorts, flipflops and T shirt. "Adapt or Die" should be the National motto.Hogdayafternoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06188146617570775741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3434417594974826136.post-23920993538386066642010-01-26T15:25:13.049+00:002010-01-26T15:25:13.049+00:00Like they say, one picture is worth a thousand wor...Like they say, one picture is worth a thousand words....look how much typing you saved yourself. <br /><br />I am going to suggest we celibrate Ausi day here in California.

I can see how it grows on folks, (but not Toddy's backpackers resort - hopefully under new management!)<br /><br />It was interesting being out there and in NZ at the time George W launched the first strike on Baghdad. Much debate whenever my Brit accent was heard at the bar.Hogdayafternoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06188146617570775741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3434417594974826136.post-17446082252847215202010-01-26T11:49:00.189+00:002010-01-26T11:49:00.189+00:00Aahhhhhhhh yeah?!

Had a great time in the middle, up the top, down the right hand side. Sydney is very pretty but not sure I could live there long term. Something didn't quite click with me.Old BEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06974090439936326476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3434417594974826136.post-57493288888693407172010-01-26T11:39:57.596+00:002010-01-26T11:39:57.596+00:00Very funny Conan!

(but way to uncomfortable with legs akimbo on a Hog) Believe it or believe it, but that pic was a flyer issued during the Sydney gay pride march in 2003, advising folks who may have come from abroad, that the traffic comes at you from a different direction down there. Yes, quite. As for me and Mrs Hogday, we were there for, amongst other things on our world backpack, the Harley 100th anniversary, dressed as tourists ;)<br /><br />I may have to attend the Thunder in the Glens Harley rally this summer. I'll be in black.Hogdayafternoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06188146617570775741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3434417594974826136.post-3056357405907215242010-01-26T11:27:26.689+00:002010-01-26T11:27:26.689+00:00Is that your Harley riding gear Hogday?(I don'...Is that your Harley riding gear Hogday?(I don't mean the sunglasses)<br />Your fiend, Conan.Conan the Librarian™https://www.blogger.com/profile/01904339261121451779noreply@blogger.com
