A Quick Explanation

So I have finally finished posting all of my photos from our Easter Break trip! Hooray! I still have a couple posts to type up and I will get around to that soon, I promise. In the mean time, it was requested that I explain the titles of my photo albums on facebook. They are all inside jokes that came up on the trip and they will probably not be nearly as funny to you as they are to us but I will explain them anyway. I enjoy trying to spread my strange sense of humor.

Do Sheep Only Jump Over Fences in Dreams?
This was said by Amanda when we were trying to figure out why they have staircases that go over fences. I have a few pictures of them. They basically allow people to walk over fences. We assumed that they are to enable humans to go from place to place but to keep sheep into their allotted area. Amanda then exclaimed, "What, do sheep only jump over fences in dreams? They seriously can't get over this."

Give Me a Smile, Pussycat
This is merely a quote from Borat. Kevin and Chris liked to use the accent and end every other sentence with "pussycat." That's what we did when we weren't imitating Kelly. (The guy from shoes. If you don't know what it is then search the word shoes on youtube. It will be the first thing.)

Three Countries: The United States, New Zealand and...... Italy
When we were in Christchurch, we went to the Antarctic Center. Lots of people fly through Christchurch to go to Antarctica. New Zealand has good proximity. As part of the experience, we went on a ride on a Hagglund which is the vehicle they use to travel around Antarctica. The driver at one point was explaining to us that Christchurch is the starting point for explorers from three different countries: the US, New Zealand, and Italy. However, when he told us this there was literally a minute long pause between the word "and" and "Italy." I don't know what happened, if he just lost his train of thought or what but we had almost forgotten what he had been talking about by the time he got around to saying Italy.

She Didn't Look Like a Breezshaw. Does Anyone?
We stopped at a gas station in a tiny town in the middle of nowhere. There were literally about 10 buildings. A lot of the gas stations in New Zealand still have people who pump the gas for you instead of you doing it yourself. So when we got the receipt for our gas it said that the person who pumped our gas was named Breezshaw. We thought this was quite a peculiar name. At one point, someone remarked, "She doesn't look like a Breezshaw..." Amanda's response, "Does anyone? Who came up with that name?"

Are You Guys Tourists?
In Christchurch one day on the way back to our hostel, which Scott decided was on the shady side of town (it wasn't that shady), a guy stopped us and asked if we were tourists. We said that we were. He then asked if we wanted a smoke. We politely declined. I don't think he was talking about a cigarette.

A $36 Muffin and A Free Cruise
On our cruise at Milford Sound, part of the deal was that we got a free muffin. We were all super pumped about the free muffin because what college student doesn't love free food. Lorissa, however, decided that maybe it wasn't a free muffin. Maybe it was a $36 muffin and a free cruise. I don't really care that much as long as I got a muffin and a cruise. It could be $18 for the muffin and $18 for the cruise. I'd be okay with that too.

I hope you're amused by this. And if you're not, then I hope you're not confused anymore. And if you're not either of those things, well, then I guess you just wasted your time reading this. Stinks for you.
Peace.
