Got up at 11.11 exactly this morning :0
We were meant to be going into Palmerston North at 12, but ended up leaving at around 1.30PM instead, due to a horrible crash right outside our driveway. According to Mum, there were around 5 cars involved, and they were having to cut people out of some of them. I didn't go too close, but I biked down to have a look, and there were several ambulances and two fire engines, and road workers directing cars around the- I wont quite say carnage, but it was bad.
When we left, there was an empty car sitting on the side of the road, with two doors missing and the front end completely crumpled, and a huge, HUGE crack on the windshield. I hate to think it, but it looked very much like the crack came from a human head.
Anyway, onto a lighter subject.
In Palmy, we first went to this music shop, where Tori got a capo for her guitar.
Next we went to Farmers, where I found some comfy grey track pants for around the house, and some black pants. We were there for about an hour and a half.
Mum then decided she'd like to go to the Plaza, so we walked all the way down Broadway back to the car, and drove to the big Plaza car park. Mum has this fear of those "min height 2.7m" bars, cause once she accidentally hit one :D
In the Plaza, I had my first sushi. Yes, I know. I just never got around to it. It was goood. My first bite wasn' t though, cause there was far too much wasabi.
Next, onto Jayjays. We were there a while. I finally found a top that I liked, after about an hour of browsing. Mum says it's very "flattering". Hmm.
Finally, we stopped in this really expensive surfer shop, the name of which totally escapes me right now, where Mum bought a new bag, Tori fawned over the Vans and other shoes they had there, and Ellie tried on ridiculously big hats. I was looking at these really, really nice trench coats (one a beautiful blue which Mum loved but was shocked at the price of- $250+), and lamenting the fact that they would only look anywhere near good on me if I lost 10kgs or so.
Aaaand that was my day. Wooo.
Adios :<
Cracks in windscreens always look like they were made by heads in that situation. When we had our crash, and we went and saw the van before it was crushed, it looked like there was no way that the six people who had been in there could have survived.
