Waterfront Rugby

• It's pretty cool to see large rugby tournaments at parks around Perth. Especially when the men playing are 35+. Reminds me of going to tournaments with my dad at the fields in San Diego. Michael & I mainly played on the playground (meaning my rugby knowledge is about on par with my knowledge of ancient Urdu) but I just remember my dad's crazy intensity while watching the matches. Pretty sure he would have loved these waterfront versions:

• If you want some insight into what an Australian bush walk looks like (at least in suburban Perth), hike Torrey Pines and add a few intrusive plants. Oh and snakes. That can kill you. Yay Sunday outings!

• And if you want to compare your local public train poster to an Australian one, look no further. As you can probably imagine, they're hilarious.

• Life update: everything is pretty awesome. Job is awesome. Driving on the left is (mostly) awesome. The Bob is (smelly and) awesome.
• Not so awesome: being 12-15 hours ahead of all non-Aussies, especially the little nugget who stole my heart and won't give it back, one Benjamin "Jamon" Ruby. As you can see, he wants to be here with me as well but his parents are keeping him in cute baby jail. Sigh.
