Japan, Australia

Well world, I have returned to my home in Japan. It snowed here last night... therefore I went surfing today. To me, logic makes sense in a twisted sort of way. Needless to say, I froze my face off on the way back to the car. I started laughing out of the realization of my sheer stupidity. I laughed even harder when I saw my face reflected in the car window, because I wasn't smiling at all. My face had become so stiff that when I smiled, it didn't really do anything. It just sat there, looking cold. Really hilarious stuff.

I return to California tomorrow evening. (break) in that break there was a lapse of about three days. Now I'm back in California. So, since my trip is over, it's time to talk about the beginning: Australia.

I always thought kangaroos in Australia was some sort of silly stereotype that silly people invented, but I was wrong. No, really. They're everywhere! People don't like to drive in the evening because they're always hopping across the roads. They're also have notoriously bad driving habits. They calmly watch a car coming, and while the car cautiously inches past them... ah ha!! They jump straight into the car. Sometimes even straight into the side of the car. It's like a game. Supposedly. I didn't see this happen.

Can you see the roos lurking in the back?

I like to think it's part of an evil kangaroo conspiracy. They're actually the smartest creatures on earth, and they have all humans connected to machines that suck the life energy out of them, all the while making them live in a hallucination. Like the matrix. But kangaroos instead of machines. Having kangaroos in this hallucination is an enjoyable little joke to them. They spend their lazy days in reality watching our hallucinations like TV... oh look at that one, straight into the head light... oh and that one, those silly humans think they're so superior.

I'm getting side tracked. Australia. Yes.

I stayed in a small town called Denmark in the south-western tip of Australia. It's home to a surf spot called Ocean Beach, which is famous(in my mind) for being a spot the guys in Endless Summer went to. They heard that they "shoulda' been here yesterday"... and that was the case for us, as well.

This is Ocean Beach:


The surf report for the day read: A poke in the eye would be more fun &/or gargling some wasps.




I'll write again soon!!
