> That is interesting you mention Vail, Colorado. I suppose it's a snow place. Lots of Australians now go to the US and Canada to work in the ski fields. My son has been twice, my nephew once, my daughter will go soon.

Anyway, they held up a bank with (I think) toy guns, took the money to a Macdonalds and photographed themselves with it, threw it in a bin, and tried to catch a plane to Mexico and were arrested at the airport. They served maybe 3 years in jail in the US.
