Australia Day 3 - Driving

Sunday we headed down the coast toward Sydney. Lots of driving. Right side steering wheels and driving on the left feels weird but so far I have avoided a collision. There's a lot of stuff in Australia that is very similar to the US, but a lot that is just a little different, like Burger Kings being called Hungry Jacks. McDonalds are everywhere, but some of the menu choices are different, and they always don't have free Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi seems to be hard to find in Australia; when it is offered, like in the two hotels we have stayed in so far, the signal is pretty poor. 

Still a lot of sticker shock at how much everything costs. Our room tonight was $140 and for two twin beds and no breakfast and a lousy air conditioner. There was a tall building in Gold Coast that I thought it would be fun to go up to the top, but it was $22 each. I didn't figure that was worth it for a few minutes and a few pictures.

The worse was the large soda at McDonalds was $3 and it was the size of a medium and there were no refills. We stopped for the night near Newcastle, a couple hours north of Sydney.
