Food...

So food seems to be a fun/gross learning experience in new countries so this post is dedicated to just that. If you remember Spain and France proposed some interesting entrees such as cow brain, duck heart, and intestines...here are pix of food in Australia so far...lol. I realized after viewing these pix that the first is a terrible angle haha...but what can I do now. I was at a bday party bbq in central coast and served were sausage dogs, bread, and grilled onions. Dog Wrap would it be called? I just thought they ran out of hot dog buns or were budget conscious cause food is so terribly expensive but they said no thats how it is done. Next Spud Sandwich. Just as it looks in the pic with a top on it. Actually was quite tasty. And the wine I thought amusing. The girls ordered white wine and it came out in a pitcher. That is my food entertainment so far....pretty weak but was funny to me at the time so amuse me and laugh...

So speaking of expensive food. Every country I go to, including third worlds like Brazil, kill me on how expensive food and drinks are. Actually how expensive everything is! We do have it pretty good I must say. Avocados on sale for 1.99 each, little thing of strawberries for 6.99, cranberry juice 10 bucks, and Corona is for special occasions only...Over $80 for a case. I was going to get a pic of some 6 pack prices but the liquor store owner didn't look like he wanted me to start snapping pictures. The cheapest 6 pack was near beer at 12.95. And this isnt for imports only..most of their stuff is local and it is just as expensive. Going out to eat is another story! Traveling does make me even more thankful for where I live....
