Urgent/time sensitive recommendation: The AFL Grand Final is today (28/09) between the Sydney Swans and the Brisbane Lions at 2:30pm. Try to find a pub to watch it at. As I said in a previous comment, if you’ve never seen AFL, you’ve never seen anything like it. Also there is the 2nd Preliminary Final for the NRL tonight at 7:40pm (Penrith Panthers vs Cronulla Sharks) with the winner playing the Melbourne Storm next weekend in their Grand Final. Both Grand Finals will make great content for your vlog, too. Welcome to Brisbane, mate. Glad to have you.
There is nowhere with ‘tribal law’. There are traditional areas in remote parts of Australia where you need to get permission to enter and some spiritual sites that are off limits. Some indigenous communities are alcohol free but this is enforced with normal law and courts etc. Once a politician had to resign for ‘accidentally’ taking a bottle of wine into a dry indigenous community. I miss when politicians had to fall on their swords for comparatively minor things. Now it seems no limit to what they get away with. In Australia *all* of the land was taken from indigenous people, none was ever reserved, they only started legally winning some rights to some of it back in the 1970’s.
Your going to have to start using metric system when you talk only 2 countries use the old imperial measurement and that's the UK and the USA only the rest of the world is metric
T.A.F.E. is you get Diplomas and certificates from short courses whereas University "Uni" you get Degrees. T.A.F.E. is more focused on trade qualifications too.
The power house has a hanging restaurant(cabled to the outside of the building)on the side of the building suspended table and chairs and you wear a safety harness they will serve you food .
Hi Scotty , if you are still planning a visit to Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary , you should know that they have officially stopped allowing visitors to hold koalas. Due to heavy demand from tourists they have introduced a compromise where you can still have a 'close up' experience but it does not actually include holding them. Also aboriginal communities are still subject to Australian law and in same cases there is some parallel traditional customs based on customary law. I'm non -indigenous but I don't think there is any formal use of spearings anymore, ( its possible maybe it may happen occasionally by private agreement entered into voluntarily between parties involved in some cases) which was once a part of traditional retributive justice. BTW, as far as I know it , its goal was never meant to permanently disfigure or disable someone so that that would would always be recognisable as a 'bad person'. More just a form of severe punishment for a transgression against society in a culture that never had the grosser inhumanity of prison.
16:53 Escalators are still escalators, the level or inclined flat escalator type things are called travellators.
The mailman we call posties. 👍
I’m writing that down

I don’t understand metric just yet 😅
I believe college in most of Australia is a private school. Not really interchangeable with the word university like it is in the US.
@@TheMl145 You’re correct my friend.
The Aussie lifestyle is getting to you as you're doing a lot more walking. Why not walk when the weather is good. 😎
I’ll probably still be walking when the weathers bad 😂 My summer vlog will be titled “Americans dies from heat stroke in Brisbane”
I really enjoy your quiet insights and observations.
Keep it up.
@@SpunkmeyerSnr Hey thanks mate! That means a lot
in the next two months east coast of Australia New South Wales and Victoria will experiance its wettest period

Ahhh ok so TAFE is like US community college. Gets your foot in the door

I saw that! That looked really fun!

Good to know about the koalas! Aboriginal culture seems to be a bit of a tricky subject here. I take what I hear with a grain of salt.
@@ScottyTravels very wise.
you meant travelator... its a horizontal escalator. mostly found at airports.
@@glenod Ok so not twerkilator. No worries
@@ScottyTravels heh, nah. :)
