Melbourne - Day 1

Here is a list of all the exciting things we did on our first day in Melbourne:

• Ate breakfast consisting of of Dick Smith's Bush Foods Breakfast (Bruce and Megan). http://www.dicksmithfoods.com.au/product-range/bush-foods-breakfast
• Applied for a Tax File Number online (Bruce).
• Sent some info to the brainiacs at UPS so they can tell Australian customs to release our belongings.
• Registered for Medicare (Bruce). The first non-family person we had to interact with after arriving in Australia was the lady in the Medicare office and she actually had a thick Glaswegian accent. "You travel 12,000 miles and you still can't get away from them." I bet that's what she was thinking.
• Bought a pair of black canvas Dunlop Volleys from Big W for a bargain $28 (Bruce). http://www.volley.com.au/
• Opened bank accounts at the Bendigo branch in Sandringham (Bruce and Megan).
• Bought sim cards from the Telstra shop for our mobile phones (Bruce and Megan).
• Ate dinner and promptly fell asleep for 12 hours (Bruce).
• Ate dinner and promptly fell asleep for 3 hours, woke up with a numb arm, googled the symptoms and self-diagnosed herself with MS, worried about this for an hour until her arm felt better, then fell asleep for 8 hours (Megan).
