O, Canaduh, Part 8
Coffee Shop | Right | July 3, 2015
(It is a warm day in late June. The customer I am serving has a pronounced American accent.)
Me: “I couldn’t help noticing your accent. Where are you from?”
Customer: “Des Moines. It’s my first time in Canada.”
Me: “What do you think so far?”
Customer: “Well, I was a little shocked when we were flying in, actually.”
Me: “About what?”
Customer: “I was pretty surprised not to see snow.”
Me: “I think that Iowa and Ontario have a pretty similar climate. Is there snow on the ground there right now?”
Customer: “No, but this is CANADA.”
