Pancakes, Rock and Otherwise

I almost missed the bus yesterday. I really wanted some breakfast, but I didn't really have time for it, but I tried for it anyway. Egg on avocado on toast. It was good, despite the fact that I ended up having to eat it out of a plastic bag. After breakfast we stopped at the Pancake rocks (they weren't terribly exciting), and a seal colony (I think I saw maybe 1 seal, must have been an off day). I had some pancakes at a cafe nearby and they were good.

Next on the agenda was a stop at Greymouth for shopping to create costumes for the night's bad taste dress-up party. I went as overly-holiday-themed-when-it-isn't-even-the-holidays guy. Sunglasses, holiday hat with antlers, red shirt with blinky Christmas tree on it, green striped thermal undershirt, musical blinky holiday tie, board shorts, and flipflops. I made the Christmas-tree shirt myself. I later found out that a kiwi experience ahead of us had a holiday theme for their party. I must be on the wrong bus! Also, I didn't win the contest (oh, I didn't mention the party was also a contest? Sorry...). I think I definitely did better than the second place guy, maybe not first place, but definitely second. Oh well... It was fun to hang out with everyone.
