As we picked up our camper and headed to our house through the busy centre of Brisbane to collect our luggage, we were really shocked that every second car was honking at us. We started to worry that something was wrong with the car and we decided to stop at a petrol station to check the tyres - everything seemed OK...
We arrived at the house and by the time we approached the car from the rear, we realized what was the reason for the blowing of horns - there was a great sign on the back asking, "HONK IF YOU ARE NOT WEARING UNDERWEAR". We were laughing for almost 10 minutes, and then throughout the following 18 days every time we heard honking while being overtaken!
It was very interesting to see the differences between the Australian states, but that's a different story. The most wicked thing that happened was in Victoria, near Geelong. Again, as always, a car overtaking was honking. However, as it pulled along side the van the girl sitting next to the driver held something out of the window and began to shout at us and point to the strange object in her hand. It was wrapped in plastic and was pink. She was shouting that she couldn't wear underwear with it. ????? We were confused, but then realized what's was going on. It was an artificial plastic penis!! I can tell you, we expected everything, but we were really shocked. Wicked, isn't it?
