Australian Money
Australians have very interesting looking money, they are printed on soft transparent plastic sheets. So each bill have a "window" through them, they are just as colourful as our canadian dollars. But the colour-to-value mapping was all wrong, the $20 is red, I always had to look twice because the canadian $50 is red.
*edited* Another interesting thing about Australian money is that their coins are smaller the more value it's worth. They don't have pennies either.
Australian Toilets
I didn't really look how the water swirls, but the design of the toilets here are deeper, and each toilet have 2 buttons on top.. Took me a while to figure out, but it's one button for small flush, the other for big flushes... BRILLIANT I promise pictures

The small button is to be used when you pee and the bigger button is for when you poop. It is a brilliant idea, saves on water and energy. don't understand why we don't have this in Canada
