Vodka Phone
I just purchased a mobile WiFi hotspot from Vodafone. If you type Vodaphone (with “ph” instead of “f”) iPhone or iPad spell check turns it into Vodka Phone. I think that is funny. Anyway, it was NZ$99 which is US$80.04. It comes with 2GB of data on it and it will also work in Auckland when I go there on Thursday. It was just too dicey to rely on the free city-wide WiFi because it is slow and not available in everyplace that I’m going. And it seems I’ll be doing a lot of indoor activities today since it is raining and chilly! UGH!
Here is my charging station for all my electronics.
Looks like a scene from Christmas Story.
Speaking of indoor activities, one that I really enjoy is eating! I went to Four Kings and had the BEST cheeseburger. The waitress said it was a “proper” patty, meaning that they make the burger homemade there at the restaurant and that it doesn’t come frozen. Let me tell you what. It was great! And as common in Australia, it comes with a slice beetroot kind of like a tomato slice would come on a burger. It is weird at first but I actually liked it. The fries (chips) in NZ are to die for. They are the shoestring kind and come with aioli which is pretty much just spicy mayo from what I’ve tasted. So delicious!
I guess most Americans use ketchup on their burgers so the waitress brought me some. Isn’t that the cutest ketchup dispenser?!!
Ketchup
Most sandwiches from a club sandwich to a grilled chicken sandwich to a burger come with a fried egg on top. I gotta say I’m a big fan of the fried egg on my burger!
