Well, it is September and almost spring here in NZ. That sounds weird! I thought it was fall. How is the great spring weather, you ask- well remember this past June? Yes, it's just like that. The sun seems a bit shy this spring so the clouds and rain are covering it up often. The locals say this is unusual! We are hoping to see that sun more often.
We just added some pictures of the town. There is a beautiful park about 2 blocks away, so Chris and I went in there and had a great time taking pictures for our blog- as you can tell! Otherwise, we have been keeping busy with work ( for Chris) and job hunting (for me) and enjoying our new surroundings! I think Chris' favorite part of NZ is his commute- about a 12 minute walk! My favorite part of NZ is the overhead waves! Not! The surf here can be a bit large! We went surfing on Sunday and it was a great experience. We got to use our new boards and enjoyed the head high waves! Now we are looking for a camper van. There are tons to choose from and we want to pick just the right one so we can travel around this beautiful countryside! We'll keep you updated and send some pictures (especially for Uncle Jimmy)of our new van when we find it! That's it for now! More to come soon!

Great pics! I love the mountain from your backyard. The park is so much more formal than anything around here. Keep sending!
ReplyDeleteHi guys!
ReplyDeleteGuess who handed in the retirement letter! I won't know till December 30 at the latest! Where's that calendar to sign up for a visit?
Hey! I love the blog and the pics look great. The Flanagans wish you both all the best- be safe and have a phantastic time. I can't wait to see pics of the camper- I had a Westy when I first moved to Cincy(the conservatives love to see that hipster van in the driveway!). We have a skype account and hope to hook up with you soon.
ReplyDeletePeace and Chicken Grease!
