It's like how you wouldn't say you're 'on Australia' or 'on Hokkaido', because even though they're islands they're just too big to really be 'on'. Nice job with saying 'the' North Island though; soo many foreigners don't pick up on that. *L&P* (short for Lemon & Paeroa, the place it was invented) is an iconic NZ drink beloved by kiwis, just like Pineapple Lumps and Whittaker's chocolate.

    That Pie is called a "Georgie Pie" which used to be a NZ fast food restaurant back in the 90's that McDonalds bought out. They used to have varieties like mince, steak, minced steak & cheese (the one you got), sweet&sour pork, chicken & vege, sweet apple, and blueberry apple pies. McDonalds brought back some of the Georgie Pies because of demand from kiwis.
    They were so popular because of the pastry, and they were only $1 for the small (the one you had), and $2 for the large. So for $5 you could get 4 x steak mince and cheese pies and a small fries. Every kid back in the 90's used to go there after school and they used to do childrens birthday parties as well.

      Georgie Pie took out a lot of debt in order to expand throughout the country. They were operating at a profit, but not by much and had close to no cash on hand. Given they were expanding so fast and taking away market share from McD's, McDonalds bought the debt from the lending banks and then foreclosed on the debt, forcing GP out of business. It's an example of the worst characteristics of international corporates.

    Lake Taupo is pronounced 'toe-paw'. Ordinary, everyday beef here in NZ is all grass fed which I think is completely different to the US where you have to search it out - so yes - something to write home about! The huge mountain you mentioned at 10.32 is called Mt Ruapehu and was the location of Mount Doom in Lord of the Rings. Hope you were told that at the time - a sacred mountain to the local Iwi (tribe) and a special place for all of us Tolkein fans.

    L&P - refers to Lemon & Paeroa - a town in the Waikato.
    for the kiwis here - before there was L&P - there was Lemon & Te Aroha -
    Te Aroha was a spa town from 1882, when its hot pools were first
    developed by the government, until well into the 20th century. People
    suffering from a range of ailments came to Te Aroha to bathe in the
