Two Irishmen are traveling to Australia. Before they leave home, one of their dads gives them both a bit of advice: "You watch them Aussie cab drivers. They'll rob you blind. Don’t you go trusting them!"
The two lads, determined to make the most of their trip, arrive in Sydney and jump into the first cab they find. The cabbie, a grinning Aussie with a thick accent, asks, “Where to, mates?”
One of the Irishmen looks at his friend, then back at the driver and says, “We’re going to the Opera House!”
The cabbie grins wider, taps his meter, and drives off. A little while later, the cab stops, and the driver says, “Here we are, fellas.”
The Irishmen look out the window. "But… this is just a parking lot!" they exclaim.
The cabbie shrugs and says, “Ah, mate, you said you wanted to go to the Opera House, didn’t you? That’s where the real show starts. For the grand tour, you'll have to hop in for the next act!”
The Irishman, slightly confused, gets out and peeks at the meter. “Blimey! We’ve been driven in circles for the last hour!”
The second Irishman shakes his head. “You’re right, but I’ll tell you one thing… He sure did make the ride sing.”
