Somewhere Down Under!

Is it New Zealand or Australia?

Went shopping this afternoon, to the Yamaya supermarket in Aoyama-1chome, and was quite bemused to come across this sign in their wine corner. The flag on the top is the Australian flag, then it says New Zealand under the flag, and written vertically in Japanese is… Australia!

Not sure how they ended up with that sign, but surely New Zealand needs a new flag… and Australia could probably do with a new one as well!

By the by, we couldn’t find any penne pasta, and other shops seem to be out of it as well. Prices for other types of pasta are up as well. Global warning leads to anti-penne pandemic anyone?
