Hello my Texan friend

How are you today

I've got a cold, but thank God it's the mildest I've ever had

That's almost good

Yea, hopefully it'll be gone by tomorrow.
How are you, my friend?

How was growing up in Australia anyway

Very very good. The only thing that wasn't a good part of my childhood was the lack of snow
What's it like growing up in the USA?

Alright I guess

It's kind of hard to describe

I've spent my whole life wanting to play in the snow like (the Americans) on TV. That's the only thing I can complain about growing up in Australia

But it sounds like Texas and Sydney have the same weather

I had never seen snow either

Hahaha. Maybe. What's Texas' climate like?
Does it get below freezing (32F) in winter?

When it hits 65F and below you'll see people wearing sweaters and jackets

But for me I kind of like the cold

I live in southern Texas though

More or less the same as Sydney, though we would probably start wearing our jumpers when it's a few degrees warmer than that

Wait sorry I forgot what jumpers was...

Yes, if you ever come to Sydney and want to go to the beach, make your way down to Jervis Bay (about 3-4 hours by train and bus, you have to get a train to Kiama, then switch for a different train to Bomaddery, which is the end of the line, then a bus from there) and go to Hyams Beach, which has the Guiness World Record for whitest sand. My family and I used to go there all the time, you will not be disappointed. The only thing you have to watch out for, however, is sharks. There used to be a shark patrol, but our moron government cut it (probably as a cost saving measure), sharks are veery uncommon occurance, but they are an occurance. My family and I used to go down there all the time, it is a lovely little corner of the world. Australia is a federation, and all of Sydney and Jervis Bay are within the state of New South Wales (NSW), except for a tiny part of Jervis Bay in Booderee National Park, home to Jervis Bay Territory, a territory which most Australians have never even heard of

Jumpers are sweaters right?

Sounds great thanks

More or less

So you really want to go see snow again?
