Our fun-sized leader is having a whale of a time on his state visit to the southern hemisphere.
His plan throughout the excursion is to immerse himself in all Australia has to offer, and wallow in the diversity of it's inhabitants.
After an initial "oh dear" mix-up with customs at the airport, he got off to a flying start in Sydney, where he met several people from his homeland. This isn't surprising considering the city is known as "the 33rd county" (due to the influx of Irish people), but surely that was that!?
Well, not really, as he travelled further'a field he found a bit of a pattern developing. He takes on a bungee jump, some scuba diving, and even ventures deep into the bush to meet the 'real' people of Oz - where surprises await him around every turn.
Ohh and there is that case of mistaken identity in the zoo...
