--- Quote from: apskip on October 16, 2008, 09:28:42 AM ---That scene hits different people in different ways. I don't think Brooke was actually scared, as she laughed in a high-pitched voice. I think she was startled. Maori warriors with all of their markings (like tattoos) on their bodies do look totally fierce, but Halloween was still 6 months away(Halloween is celebrated in New Zealand on Gut Fawkes Day Nov. 5).
--- End quote ---
Halloween is not celebrated on Guy Fawkes day here (NZ) - Guy Fawkes day is about fireworks, not trick-or-treating.
A small minority of the population celebrate halloween on the same day the Americans do, but it is generally viewed as an over-commercialised event which is a reflection of bad American customs.
Guy Fawkes day is a "celebration" of this person: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guy_fawkes It is not so much a celebration, but more an excuse to set off fireworks.
patlini:
yes growing up in england Guy Fawkes is like July 4 for fireworks
and a big bonfire with the "Guy" on it
sorry to digress

Can't tell, but that might look more like Mt Eden than One tree Hill.. :groan:
Slowhatch:
If it is Mt. Eden, here's a map. But I don't know...
"Match the Moko" is best done in daylight (perhaps why production slow-boated the racers over to Gulf Harbor?). But according to this page Eden is a popular spot for tour buses (and city buses 274-275-277 are always zipping by on Mt. Eden rd.). Production would be under some pressure to get it done and get out.
