As we travel through Australia everything is backwards in comparison to America. The roads, the cars, the walkways even the weather. In Australia they drive in the opposite side of the road than we do and because the weather is so warm and they don't get snow in most areas all the lines are white. Darren said because we get snow it is hard to see all white lines which is why we have yellow and they don't. Also because they drive on the opposite side their cars are manufactured so the drivers side is also the left. I only assume because we go by driving rules when we walk that Australians do as well we walk on the right side because that is the side that we drive on. Every time we are walking we run into people because were accidentally walking on the wrong side. It is hard to get used to walking on the left instead of the right.
Lastly but most certainly not least Australia is in the southern hemisphere so as we travel north the weather is getting warmer instead of colder! Which I'm sure all of are a fan of it getting warmer as we travel. This is the shortest time period that I have ever gone through temperature wise going from chilly to hot beach ware weather. But it is almost always warm everywhere, Australia only gets some snow in the south of the continent where at home its the north. It is just an interesting thing to think about.
