Advice for an American living in Australia?

Make sure you bring A LOT OF MONEY. I have been here for a month and it's the most expensive place I have ever been to. Hotels are expensive about $150-200 a night. Rentals range from $280-$500 weekly with a 6 weeks deposit required. Vehicles are twice the cost they are in the US. Transportation system is great. Adult one month p to all access of ferry's, busses and train is about $248 and children are $80 a month. Strollers work on the bus of any size strollers they are called Prams out here. 8 oz bottle of coke is $3.85 and a 2 liter bottle is $5.00. People make much more money out here than in the US. Minimum wage is like $15 an hour out here, so everything is more expensive because of that.
