Yep, that's how many miles it is from Carmel, Indiana to Sydney, Australia. Fun fact: if you were to drive there it would take 55 days and 23 hours (that includes kayaking across the Pacific Ocean). In just 5 short days I will be hopping on a plane to travel to the Outback. The REAL Outback...not the American steakhouse...although that bloomin' onion thing is pretty good. But, I digress, I will be using this blog to chronicle my adventures in the land of Oz. I will try to update as regularly as I can, but if it's been a few days since my last update just assume that I'm busy boxing a kangaroo or wrestling a croc.
I'll keep this first post short and sweet and leave you with a classic commercial for Vegemite, an Australian yeast spread and the inspiration for my blog title.
I love 50's TV commercials.
Stay tuned for my next post, most likely from LAX where I have a 5 hour layover. It'll be the best people watching ever.

Oh my gosh, I can't wait to read about all your crazy happenings in Australia!
ReplyDeleteAnd I can't believe you leave in five days! wahh I'll miss you.. but I guess traveling half way around the world is pretty cool.
