I promised a *brand new blog*! So, here goes. About a month ago, I was chatting with my
friend Nicole about her adventures in her new city of LA. Wanting to encourage her to find me a shabu
shabu restaurant explore her surroundings, she came up with the excellent idea of giving
her tasks to accomplish while in her new environment. It turned into Mission:LA where Nicole
requests that people on her facebook suggest things she should do in LA (re: find
me that shabu shabu place, Nicole, I need it.) to help her acclimate to her
town. Seeing as stealing imitation is
the highest form of flattery, I present MISSION:MELBOURNE. That’s right.
You tell me to do something, I do it.
Can’t make it out here to visit?
Ask me to do something for you!
Hey Devon, go pat a shark*.
Done. Hey Devon, go eat some ox
tongue*. Done. Hey Devon, jump out of a plane. Actually, no.
That won’t happen. BUT! Think I should take a surfing lesson (even
though I am terrified of the ocean and the blue ringed octopus?) or learn how to throw a boomerang while
I’m here? Sick of seeing me pat only
furry animals? Consider it done and see
your idea on one of my blog posts!
Leave your comments for things I should do. Help me learn about Melbourne and Australia!
*Sharks are rough and ox tongue is chewy,
for the record.
Are you going to drive out to see the "Big Red Rock?". It's supposed to be a similar experience to seeing the Grand Canyon here...
ReplyDeleteYes we are planning a trip to Uluru (Ayer's rock). We are waiting for family who also have an interest in coming with us, since it's pricey and we don't want to make more than 1 trip :)
