Things You Definitely DON'T Find in Nashville


Lights that only work with a room key
Pasta Happy Meals
Two options for flushing
"Tyre" Shops
Cute post office boxes
"Takeaway" restaurants
Cats roaming through the high schools
Mint Twix bars
Girl Guide Cookies
Pea, Pie, & Pud (which WAS in Nashville last night!)
Passion fruit
Women's Restroom Sign in Maori
Kiwi Fruit Tourist Attractions
Rock Graffiti
Kiwi Blue Power Ade
Bungy Jumping off country bridges

And these two are my favorites:


Clothing made from possum. Seriously... this was EVERYWHERE. And VERY expensive. I could make a fortune selling someone roadkill in my neighborhood.

Unrefrigerated eggs. They just don't refrigerate 'em.

These Looked Familiar
