Sock it to em Socceroos!

Monday, June 19th, 2006

Day 123
Last night we watched the Socceroos play their first world cup game, against Japan. We went to watch the match with Karmen and Tim, our great hosts in Sydney, in a old theatre televising the match on their big screen. The room was a sea of green and gold, and while the Aussies may [...]

Our weekend in Hollywood was indeed packed with glitz and glamour, although not that we expected this when we arrived. As we landed at LAX aiport we discovered that there was no room at the inn in the hostel we had planned to stay at, and instead found ourselves on our way to Hollywood [...]

But I was also able to [...]
