    What We Do in the Shadows is hilarious! The OG movie was filmed in my neighbourhood, so it just felt so familiar and like an actual documentary - that's why they kept the humour so deadpan. Taika Waititi and Jemaine Clement did an amazing job.
    There is also a spin off show called 'Wellington Paranormal', which focuses on the police (characters who were in the movie) dealing with the antics of supernatural beings around Wellington. (We live in Wellington, so maybe this is just hilarious to us 😂)

Only bad thing was they ran out of free t-shirts 3 before I got to the front of the line. It was a logo of naja’s new night club.
      I will say to anyone who hasn’t seen the show yet - it’s rated MA for a reason. It’s doesn’t feel crude but I would not watch it in front of my mom

    At some point you guys should really go to Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore! It’s about 40 min east of Traverse city. If you’re not much of a hiker or you have small kids. Just doing the scenic drive is worth it. So beautiful! And then stop in Leland and go to the Cove restaurant (ask to be seated outside) on the way back to Traverse for lunch or dinner. Such a scenic place and great restaurant. Also recommend Brys Estate winery tour. It’s on the first little peninsula there by Traverse city. Or to at least do one of the winery tours there.
