Jeff tried his first meat pie on Sunday. It gets very positive reviews from everyone involved. "It's like sausage gravy and biscuits, only brown," he says. "Everything has a brown sauce!"
The food is relatively expensive in NZ, even factoring in the exchange rate. Diet Coke runs about NZ$3.00. We were a bit surprised by the prices at the grocery store.
We've seen plenty of Coke products... but no Pepsi. McDonald's, Burger King, Pizza Hut, KFC and even Subway have made huge headway in the fast food market. There's one on nearly every corner. And no county, including NZ, has been able to escape the influx of Starbucks.
Still looking forward to finding a good Pavlova while we're here! Yummy!

Hey guys!
Jeff, it's Laura...look at you, off seeing the world while the rest of us are stuck in the cold, foggy rain...UGH.
I *love* the blog you guys are writing! It's great to read about your adventures, plus you guys have a great record of your trip that you can go back & read whenever you want.
You're not missing much here...Jeff, I still want to have that lunch with you & Jen when you get back! I miss you!
