Things I'm getting used to (in no particular order):
-driving on the left side of the road,
-shifting gears with the left hand,
-paying "security" for watching our parked car,
-1800s style turn keys for door locks,
-turning outlets on/off to save energy,
-four seasons in one day,
-surfing in cold water,
-no left turns on red,
-SUPing in absolutely glassy conditions, even when the wind is blowing in your face. Intaca island (where they have races) is protected by tall plants.
-getting up and/or getting out around 9am after rush hour morning traffic (you only need to be in it once to learn this one!)
Things I don't know if I'll ever get used to:
-right turns,
-pedestrians randomly jumping out on the street,
-hearing about the white sharks,
-highway signs don't tell you north, south, east, west. They give names of cities in that direction so you need to know your geography.
