You can see Orion in the southern hemisphere? I didn't know that. I looked for it, but couldn't find it. Everything looked so different. I knew not to look for the Ursas, but there are a few other constellations I can generally identify (Cassiopeia, Orion). However, the sky looked very... alien in Sydney. I had this thought that I might as well be on another planet - the sky would look just as alien. It was the first time I felt really far away from home. And then the next day I saw my very first live kangaroos and koalas, and I KNEW I was on another planet. :-)
