Today I drove a car in Australia. I drive on the left hand side of the road. I survived. Whew!
No great problems - I was thankful to have a Hewrtz Neverlost to help with the navigating - but by the end of the four hour drive I could navigate without it.
I drove on divided highways and on little roads. It went pretty well. At one point I went into a residential area and drove arond like a drivers test, using signals, doing different types of turns.
I looks like I can survive it. Probably the only dodgey bits are (1) proper lane alignment - I drive too close to the curve and (2) the odd use of the wipers instead of the blinkers.
Tomorrow I try again. I think I will go visit Steve Irwin's Zoo. Sorry - that is SO touristy by I am a tourist.
