A few cultural observations

- New Zealanders love 80's music. It's everywhere, and (I kid you not) might get more airplay than co temporary music.
- There are heaps (to use a kiwi/Australian term) of Mexican restaurants here.
- Since NZ is an outdoors-focused society, I thought there would be lots of beards here, but there aren't.
- I had forgotten what a burden American airport security is. In NZ you don't have to take off shoes or belts and they don't care if you bring liquids onboard. The consequence of this is short lines and only needing to show up about 30 minutes prior to departure. It's really, really nice.
