I can't swim. My family was just never into swimming, we didn't have a pool, we didn't go to aquatic centres, we didn't go to the beach. Im…

Well I think you are doing too much in 16 days, when I went last year we went to 4 places in like 19 days or something? And one of those…

That was my thought too, when it came to food it seemed like most things were similar price to Australia but in USD. I looked at some…
