New Zealand!

Hey everybody -

Been a while since I posted anything. Had a great time driving from Adelaide to Melbourne - saw the Grampians (an awesome "mountain" range in rural Victoria), the Great Ocean Road, and had a great time in Melbourne. My friend Matt was an excellent tour guide and I also greatly enjoyed seeing a Costco, which was a little taste of home.

Got into New Zealand two days ago and it's been awesome so far (once Morgan got past the check-in at Melbourne Airport, which almost didn't happen). Friendly people, nice weather, cool attractions (the International Antarctic Centre is a must-see if you're ever in Christchurch), and mountains - like, real mountains - which I haven't seen in ages.

Tomorrow we're off on something called Naked Bus, which I'm only about 90% sure isn't a nudist thing, for Queenstown where we have jetboating, helicoptering, canyon swinging, and kayaking all on the docket - should be an awesome few days. After that, we're back in Christchurch for a day and take a Lord of the Rings Tour before heading back to Australia and Sydney. Only about two weeks before I head home...feels weird.

And finally, I am very happy the Huskies are in a bowl game but really, why on earth do we have to face Nebraska again?
