Rough outline of my Australia plans

I've done a buttload of research and have come up with the following vague plan:

1. Leave Boston Tuesday morning, June 12th. Take the bus to Davis, Red Line to South Station, Sivler Line to Terminal C, fly out on United to SFO. Sleep on that plane because 11 am EDT is 1 am in Sydney.
   
2. Take the BART to Civic Center, meet up with my uncle and bluepapercup somehow. I will be downtown by 3 or 3:30 pm if that helps.
   
3. Ride a cable car and/or a MUNI streetcar, get sushi. I love sushi. Y'know, unless there is something more interesting to eat.
   
4. Book back to the airport and get on the zomg long flight.
   
5. Land in Sydney Thursday morning. Suffer amazing jet lag. Pick one out of the hundred hostels based on smell and proximity to interesting food. Stay until Monday.
   
6. Take the train to Canberra. See that.
   
7. Rent a car one-way to Melbourne. I found a deal on that.
   
8. Drive to the capey bits, wind up back in Melbourne, ditch car and ride trolleys.
   
9. Fly back to Sydney at least one day before I fly back to Ameristania.
   
10. Leave Sydney Tuesday afternoon (26 June); arrive in LAX Tuesday morning. Huzzah time travel!
    
11. Prove I'm an American again, get luggage, drag my ass to another terminal, sleep on the plane to Boston.
    
12. Spend the 27th in my bed or at Diesel, whichever irks me less.
    

Comments? By the way, I quit coffee again. It's been 48 hours. I hadn't planned it out, although i expected the headaches today and they were yesterday instead.
