Pretty cool fact: you don’t have to wear shoes here. You can walk in restaurants, stores, the post office …all without shoes. CRAZY! It’s still been a bit too cold for Liz and I to really get into that yet.
Some word changes:
jangles = flip flops (Australians call them thongs)
jumper = hoodie/sweatshirt
footpath = sidewalk
lift = elevator
entrée = appetizer (yup, this is confusing)
tea = dinner
biscuit = cookie
tramping = backpacking
I’ll let Liz explain all of the coffee differences.
And we have a job interview today! The Swiss Chalet (a restaurant on the ocean front) called us for an interview at 4:00. We’ll keep you posted. ☺
I like the new "wallpaper." Are those actually New Zealand mountains depicted?
