Anna in San Sebastian, Spain. Emily in Madrid, Spain. Luke in Sydney, Australia. Sarah in St. Petersburg. William in the British Empiar! Tuesday, July 1, 2008. Posting my experiences and thoughts to a public forum is a new experience for me and I had hoped to "kill two birds with one stone" by keeping both friends and family and my university updated at the same time. However I will be keeping in contact with my mentors and advisors through email now. Posted by A. Langsner.

http://didgeri-dude.blogspot.com/2008/07/half-way-through.html
Adventures of the Didgeri-dude. Wednesday, July 16, 2008. 2 Peter is back! I will probably take him out for dinner some time after all these World Youth Day people are gone.). 3 Yesterday I got to meet William Barton! 4 A few more of my new favorite Aussie sayings:. When someone is not bothered by something. they may say 'No drama, mate.'. Instead of saying thanks. sometimes people just say 'ta.'. Instead of saying awesome or sick, they use the term 'deadly.'. So long for now! July 16, 2008 at 9:56 PM.

Adventures of the Didgeri-dude: The Three Sisters
http://didgeri-dude.blogspot.com/2008/08/three-sisters.html
Adventures of the Didgeri-dude. Monday, August 4, 2008. A Little bit of useless trivia for you: August 1st is the official birthday of all racing horses in Australia. Little did I know, the official horse birthday is January 1st in the Northern hemisphere. Who knew? Tomorrow (Tuesday) I'm going in to see an opera at the Opera House! I figured that while I'm here, I should probably go to see a show at one of the worlds most famous opera houses. I'm really excited. Lucia Di Lammermoor. IT WAS SOOO COOL.

Adventures of the Didgeri-dude: June 2008
http://didgeri-dude.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Adventures of the Didgeri-dude. Monday, June 30, 2008. Some other notes on living here. The movie Kung Fu Panda just came out here this past weekend. I saw that movie before I left home, which was about 3 weeks ago now. I think its funny seeing bits and pieces of American culture popping up like that. Skadoosh! AIM recital, with the 12 year old playing Mendelssohn from memory. A book store window downtown displaying a new book that just came out, in which Peter wrote a chapter. Hungry Jack's = Burger King.

Adventures of the Didgeri-dude: July 2008
http://didgeri-dude.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Adventures of the Didgeri-dude. Thursday, July 31, 2008. Time to put on my tourist pants. It was nice, and gave a great view of the Harbor. You can pay lots of money to actually climb the bridge, but I didn't really see the need for that, and had plenty of fun just walking across. Monday morning, my alarm clock woke me at a nice early 6:15 am. Ouch. After getting ready, I made my way down to the bus stop to be picked up at 7am. Today was my day on the Billy Tea Bush Safari! And Rachel from England. Back ...

Adventures of the Didgeri-dude: Slow down, you move too fast. You got to make the morning last...
http://didgeri-dude.blogspot.com/2008/07/slow-down-you-move-too-fast-you-got-to.html
Adventures of the Didgeri-dude. Monday, July 7, 2008. Slow down, you move too fast. You got to make the morning last. A grab bag of thoughts:. I was just in too much of a hurry to get places, which is silly, because my schedule is very laid back here. Now that I have chilled out, and slowed down a bit, my feet have started feeling much better. A few of my favorite Aussie expressions:. When someone is not bothered by or worried about something. they may say "I'm not fussed.". Good start to a week, I'd say.
