our new digs...

clearly i am not very good at updating this blog.... well the truth is, we just finally got our internet hooked up, and manuel and i have to take turns using it, and i haven't had a long enough "turn" to update until now.

We've moved into our new flat, right in the city. looking out the windows in the living room you can see the Wellington harbour, which you just can't beat on a good day:) Yesterday manuel and i carried TWO sofas up our 300 stairs to the apartment, and today all of my muscles hurt! but at least we have a sofa in the living room:) we're slowly settling in, and still waiting for my shipment of boxes from home with all my house stuff....so at the moment we have exactly 2 plates, 2 bowls and 2 cups...so we can't very well invite someone over for dinner! But we managed to meet some really nice people here who have generously lent us some essentials to get by until our ship comes in. haha.

we haven't started working yet, (so pray we'll get jobs soon).....but i've just received a very encouraging email from my friend at Weta...so hopefully i'll have good news soon.

and as soon as i figure out how to post pictures, i'll get some up :)

that's it for now...my "turn" is up

almost on our way....

I cannot believe that we leave tomorrow! so my blog site is still really under construction... i'll try to get some pictures up from the German wedding for those interested... but i have REALLY good intentions of blogging our experience of journeying to new zealand and finding jobs and a place to live etc, etc....

stay tuned for way cooler posts and a better site layout.....
