Driving/riding on the opposite side of the road takes some adjustment.
Crossing the street without native adult supervision is dicey business.
Round abouts abound...and they go to the left.
Woolworths is Wollys. Televisions are telies. Wedge tailed eagle is not a wedgies.
Diapers are napkins and napkins are serviettes.
Domestic power from an outlet is 220V.
Each outlet has a switch that allows them to be turned off individually.
Many homes have seperate toilet (water closets) and bathrooms; this makes sense on so many levels.
The funeral parlor in Longford is affectionately know as "stiffies corner." The cemetary is the "dead center of town."
Vegemite is really salty and best used in moderation and with lots of butter.

aluminum = aluminium
rally = rallye
There's a Krispy Kreme in the Sydney airport and a John Deere dealer in Longford.
Hobart has a McDonald's, Pizza Hut, KFC, and Subway.
