Sara was talking in the kitchen with the folks who own the farm where we stayed this weekend, about her half-marathon. The wife of the couple is from Melbourne, Australia; the husband was borne and raised in the Northland, New Zealand.
The wife was listening to Sara talk about the details of Te Houtaewa Challenge. She asked, "How much did you have to pay to enter?"
The husband chuckled and said, "Now, there, you’ve seen the difference between an Aussie and a Kiwi. And Aussie will ask straight out, ‘How much did you pay?’ A Kiwi would just dance around the question."
There it is: the difference between an Aussie and a Kiwi.
