Not a Doppelganger
I forgot to mention...
I was walking down Pitt St. in Sydney, on my way to a grocery store to stock up on Tim Tams before my flight home. As I walked, I glanced at the people to my sides, half in interest, half making sure I wasn't stepping on anyone's toes. All of a sudden, in glancing to my right (for you walk on the left in Australia), I happened upon a familiar face -- but not personally familiar. I did a quick double take, and in that moment, saw a characteristic hair flip and smile that I've seen on the screen in Firefly, Serenity, and Waitress.
Yes, I had just walked by Nathan Fillion. And to further prove it (because I could barely believe it), I checked and found out that there was a Serenity conference in town two days later, which he was slated to attend.
That pretty much made Sydney.

I THOUGHT I DID TELL YOU?!
I didn't get a picture, or say hi, or shake his hand, or anything of the sort. It didn't register that it was him til 3 steps after I passed him, and by that time he was swept away in the crowd of walkers. *sigh*
