Nice work on the collage, hun! Did it spark any interesting discussions??
I'm sorry to hear about the birdy :-(. I hit a small animal once too and I cried about it... you just can't help it sometimes!!
Hello- I just now got your postcard, too. Thanks!! I'm glad you're having fun! The job is still good, but nothing exciting to report (well, nothing exciting compared to a vacation in New Zealand!)
Cute pictures! I wouldn't have been able to drive so close to the ocean and cliff. Do you ever just talk with someone in town about NZ? I would want to do that, but you know me--I'm too awkward :/
Nancy should save her "inhaler." It's probably worth something back in the states.
juuuuusssttt kidding!
But just in case it breaks, I've heard you can do the same thing with a potato.
....now I feel as awkward as Ashley when she wrote about the special adult stores.
Oh well, I think we were just born without censor buttons... ;-D
I'm IN LOVE with the "I wish I were" sculptures and captions. Isn't it amazing how irony still finds you half a world away?
And that tree. is. the. coolest. thing. I've. ever. seen.
American horror movies would kill for that.

Eggs Heh, once in French class in HS, the teacher mentioned that they don't refrigerate eggs in France, and a girl asked why they didn't hatch... yeah.
I love you, hope you're having fun!
INCREDIBLE WOW, I love the pics.
It sounds wonderful. Are you having the time of your lives??
Have fun fun fun!
Ashley, dont forget the routine we talked about for you mom :)

Cigarette warnings Ashley, I absolutely love those morbid cigarette warnings; I wish I could pick up a pack of them for my dad, who's been a chain smoker since he was 14! And I think it's really interesting how you were able to pick up on all those contradictions in their society already. I bet a lot of outsiders do the same thing to us lol
Oops, I think I just posted a comment w/o my name attached to it!
I LOVE reading about the adventures and looking at the fun pictures! I'm impressed by the amount of vegetarian options over there--are there many vegetarians?
p.s. Those pictures w/ the smoking warnings are disturbing
Yay! I'm finally reading the entries :) I love the pictures, and it sounds like both of you are having a blast. I'm impressed by the amount of vegetarian options there--are many people vegs?
p.s. those picture smoking warnings freak me out!
Kortni: we've decided we like it here so much that we're staying an extra day, so we'll be leaving the 18th (Saturday). We're picking up our rental car tomorrow. My feet are back to normal now...yayyyyy for a while there I was super self-conscious of my fat feet. :-D I haven't run into any alumni but I did meet a few people that were originally from the US and they live/work here now. One from Oregon, Minnessotta, and Ohio.
Love ya
HEY HI Nancy and Ashley
It sounds like a heck of a trip to get there. But so worth.
The pics are great!!! Keep them coming.
Have fun and stay on the correct side of the road. :)
