It's hard to get used to looking at menu prices at restaurants and not adding another 7 bucks to the price. Here, what you see is what you pay. Explain that.
-"Aussie" is pronounced Ozzie. Explain that.
-So far, I've found that they don't really like Obama. Explain that.
-They enjoy indulging in American cliches about Australians. Ask any of them to say something Australian and they'll say "Crikey!" or "G'day" as if that's how they really talk.
