In Which I Learn Things About One-Worldness

sweh was, as usual, right. You do have to apply for a visa in advance to go a-holidaying in .au. Happily, in these magic modern times, you can do it online in about three minutes.

(I'd assumed it was like visiting .uk, where you just fill out a little card while your flight is descending, and then they grill you for a few minutes on the ground and *bam* you're done. Not so much.)

Yes, arkham1010 is right. (ouch! It hurts to say that!)

They would not have let you on the plane. No joke.

And some countries won't grant you a visa until they see that you've paid for a return ticket!

Fortunately, even before the Interwubs, most visas can be obtained very easily here in NYC where you can walk up to the consulate and take care of it in person.
