10. Ride bus from Lyttelton to Christchurch
11. Drop off Library Books
12. Eat takeaway from Thai Smile

Paint it Mozzarella!


Henry Ford once said, "Any customer can have a car painted any colour
that he wants so long as it is black".

In the country of Ecuador, you can have any cheese you want...as long
as it is Mozzarella! I would challenge almost any supermarket
in the United States to have more cheese than those markets in Ecuador.
Walk into the store and you're faced with the Great Wall of Cheese!
Even those cheeses that "aren't" mozzarella, still have the consistency
and taste of it. Don't get me wrong. I like Mozzarella. I just don't
like it as much as Ecuadorans do. And they seem to like it...a lot!
