Today we are 1/2 through our New Zealand sojourn.
We have about 100 posts over about 90 days. The blog hasn't slowed as much as I feared it would.
We now hope that we will drive on the right side of the road when we return.
My hypothesis might become a theory; the days seem faster as things become routine. I try to change things as much as I can.
Walk from the ferry to campus--I have three paths to choose.
With the warmer weather, I walk to Onetangi beach and watch the sea crash to shore before I get the bus.
Anything to shake up the routine and make our visit seem to last longer.
P.S. We haven't written about #12 and we only have a few photos. Compared to #7, #12 is warmer--insulated with modern windows that shut and seal. No fireplace, just electric heat. We needed that for the first week. It is warmer now and we're not running the heaters.
Two showers and toilets! How lovely!
We're back to the dish brigade--no dishwasher. And laundry is an adventure--washer yes, dryer no.
I was working from home recently and while Lucy and I typed away, the rain started falling.
"Rain! Take in the clothes!" I yelled and ran for the door. Lucy and pulled down the garments and moved them inside. Two steps forward, one back.

Hi folks,
ReplyDeleteYou don't sit around much, do you? Enjoying the posts and photos of the beautiful countryside and ocean. wow. The names are a bit tough, but you seem to have mastered them. Benjamin and Emily are really great sports--they'll have some great stores to tell their kids. So the twin cities have fans in NZ? Not too much new here--big bruhaha over the red light cameras. Somehow all the national angst has focussed on the camera issue--creeping socialism, etc. Keep up the posts. Have fun
