Strange things

The strangest thing I have seen here in Australia so far are the Bottlemarts: What is in Sweden systembolaget and in Finland Alko is in Australia the Bottleshop. You can buy liquor in grocery shops here either. The difference is that you have also drive thru Bottleshops - the Bottlemarts in which you can shop out of your car ...

Strange is also you don't get automatically rice with your food when ordering something in Asian restaurants here. If you forget it (like I often do), you end up with eating only the sauce and whatever is in it (fish, vegetables .. depends on what you have ordered).

 Strange but really practical and tastefull: You can get coffee in coffebags ("teabags") here! No difficult coffee making or tasteless instant coffee when camping - it's no problem to have a decent cup of coffee in the morning!
