USA is A-okay
Woo hoo, Liz finally made some friends. Sort of. On my last night in Seattle I went to Seattle theatre sports with a Dane, an Israeli and a fellow Aussie. The theatre was behind a gum wall. Very hard to explain and if i had a digital camera this is where I'd post pictures, but i don't. Someone must have stuck gum on the wall and started a craze. It's covered in it, people spell there name's with and draw pictures with it. It's really cool in a really gross way. Then we went for dinner on the pier which was awesome and once again I was confounded by massive american portion sizes. They are determined to bloat me but I will not cave. And I finally have a photograph with people in it, yay! The next day Katie (the american sister we never had that lived with us for a year)drove from North Plains to pick me up. Today we drove down to the coast, hung out with the Richards grandparents and their very strange dog. Imagine a fox crossed with an ewok and you might get the idea. Then we visited a massive cheese factory which was very awesome to a girl obsessed with cheese (which I am) and had ice-cream. I am very much enjoying not having to make small talk about the fact that I'm australian and/or having my roommates practice their english on me. Woo for a single bed in my own room and americans who drive!

Today I heard that Australians play the ancient game of jacks with sheep knuckles. Would that be true?.... Even city kids?... It's old dried out chewing gum. Who wants to lick that?
