|
chris |
and shes gotten used to the nz "finish whats on ur plate" attitude |
| 12:07 |
|
owen |
Yeah, America's definitely a more-more-more kinda place. |
| 12:07 |
|
owen |
...where they make it cheaper to buy more food than you want than just the right amount. |
| 12:08 |
|
chris |
yeah, portions are pretty big alright .. its ok once u remember is acceptable to leave stuff on ur plate |
| 12:08 |
|
owen |
Will NZ waitresses scold you if you leave something on the plate? |
| 12:09 |
|
chris |

Sadly we've come to the conclusion that our daughter is not ready for the flight to NZ, so we'll have to postpone our trip until she's older. |

He was checking in from an SF Starbucks |
| 13:35 |
|
owen |
By the way, I just got a message from Stephen--we are booked at the same hotel as the conference. |
| 13:35 |
|
owen |
And I called the hotel, and internet access is standard in all the rooms. |
| 13:36 |
|
owen |
(it sounded like it was wireless, but the operator didn't really know) |
| 14:22 |
|
richard |
hi all |

kados |
owen: that's great about the internet ... yahoo! |

|
owen |
Yeah--*whew*! |

I guess the profit margin on guests is higher than the one on conferences |
