Buckets of Rain


Another day, another dollar. The past Sunday I ended my streak of 13 consecutive days going into the office and working. Logging a 50 hour work week in Australia? Exactly what I want to be doing. However, there isn't a whole lot going on. And I need to make some cash, so win-win situation. Right.

So on my day off I caught up with some people from home and did laundry. Quite a big day. There was the last match of Sydney FC's regular season, so I headed over to a pub near the ground for some beers and some football (or soccer; whatever you want to call it). The game was a real cracker--Sydney almost pulled out a victory in the pouring rain. It also featured a record crowd of 33,000+. Picture in the corner. They'll host the first game of the finals this Friday which could potentially be my last game in Sydney. Here's to Sydney making it all the way to the finals. Next time I'll have something to say, promise.

Oh, and New Zealand in two weeks.

Hi Travis!
Thought I'd get the gmail account so I can comment on your blog. Am enjoying having the opportunity to see Sydney through your eyes. So who won the game?
