To close out blogs of my Australia trip, here is the list of random thoughts throughout the trip:

• Sydney train network is good, but seriously, they need more A/C enabled trains and why some train routes are 15 to 25min apart during the day?
• Life is too short, so eat well!

• I can’t get over the nice weather in Sydney.
• Australia has tasty fresh seafood.

• Roads in Sydney have some European style to it.  Urban planning wasn’t a high priority?
• Roads in Canberra is much nicer and more organized, I like there a lot.

• The tipping custom is nice in Australia because it is not warranted.  And in some cases, the waiting staffs don’t know what to do with tips.
• I still can’t get over the nice weather in Sydney.

• Deep Fried Mars bar can’t be good for your health, but its good for the soul
• United Airline staffs in San Francisco International Airport provide the worst service to customers.
• The area between Sydney, Canberra, and Cootamundra is generally flat.  Hills, but not mountain.
• There were awfully a lot of Canadians whenever I go site seeing.
• I need a better collection of road trip music.
• Simon Baker is an Australian!
• People in Sydney certainly like to exercise…  a lot of them are really fit.
• Family should be higher priority than career!

• They have nice fish and chips, very light on breading
• Acoustic music is good for road trips.
• Bondi beach is very nice.

• Nice weather at Port Stephens.

• Why shopping malls and shops are only open 9am to 5pm all week except Thursday night till 9pm, and close on Sunday at around 3pm?!
• Never have more than 4 drinks in a pub when you are still having issues with the accent and local sayings.
• There are some nice restaurants in Sydney, Canberra, and Nelson Bay
• Australians have their cricket; Canadians have our hockey.
