Favorite foods- They said they like to eat things like biscuits, KFC and steak. I thought this was an interesting discussion as some things we like to eat too but some sounded a bit different compared to our food in Australia. They also asked if we like things like Vegemite and Tim Tams because thy are considered as Australian foods!
Festivals- We also told them that in Australia, Adelaide is considered is considered the festival state. They asked what sort of festivals we had and if they were for all ages. Some of the questions they asked about the festivals of Adelaide were a bit hard to answer as some of the things they said meant different things to what we thought.
Celebrations- One of my fellow students actually asked this question and I thought I would share it as I found it very interesting. Different celebrations that Americans have compared to Australians include:
~They have indepent day instead of Australia day.~We both have Christmas and Easter
~America has thanksgiving
~Australia has a public holiday for the Queens birthday
I hope you have learned a lot about America and Australia from this Blog because from this experience I know I have!
