Ok. So I was doing research for my trip to Australia this Fall and I came across this on the internet from a program who specializes in sending Australian youths to other countries for working holidays. So I decide to see what they wrote about Canada and this is one of the things that I came across and it made laugh because it is just so cute (and pretty true ;) )
"Ice Hockey:
Immersing yourself in a different culture means taking on the nation’s passion for sport and in Canada, we’re talking about ice hockey. Angry men wielding weapons (hockey sticks), racing after a little black puck and more often than not, losing a few teeth. The loyalty of fans and the excitement surrounding matches is inspiring to be a part of, but it is the vicious fights that take place that will make you sit back and go, ‘O Canada.’"

I just wanted to say that I really enjoyed Australia and that I took the advice of this article and took in some Aussie sports. Saw a couple of 20/20 cricket games, went to the Australian Open and of course saw a Footy (AFL, Australian Football League) game in Melbourne (where it is exceptionally big and because I lived there for most of my time Down Under) Amazing..
