quicko: things mom noticed/learned/was told, day 10

--statues are wearing clothes today (I tried to tell her they don't usually ...)
--cherry blossoms have both light and dark pink blossoms on them
--"heaps" and "no worries"
--"work colleagues" is more common than "co-workers"
--escalators level out flatter for a longer time at the top and bottom (I've never noticed ...?)
--the birds are very different and generally bigger here
--the post office sells cook books (evidently she pointed this out to me at the time, too, but ...?)
--the "dollar store" is a monumental misnomer
--musk candy (er, lollies) as well as Violet Crumbles (and related sorts of sweets)
--Kim has "famous" friends and acquaintances -- six degrees of separation seems a bit smaller here!
