Not a whole lot new going on. At the moment I am working on restoring a stock scenic unit for the Opera House here in wellington. It's not exactly a dream job, but at least i'm painting!! and i have a few other applications out there, so hopefully i'll hear something back soon.
It's unfortunately been rainy and cold here for ages...and i could not be more ready for spring and summer to get here! it's going to be really bizarre to have Christmas during the summer though...
due to the bad weather, the ship carrying all of our stuff from home was not able to come into port last week and had to skip new zealand and go on to australia! (with all my dishes!!)....so now we're looking at august 12 before we have anything. bummer.
here are a few pictures i've been meaning to upload..
This is the drop for the Iolanthe set for the Opera House that I am restoring...you can sort of see the cracking in the paint.
This is where Manuel works :) his office is on the second floor.
The one nice thing about all this rain all the time... this is a view from our balcony.

Wonderful update. You have made me want to "google" and study New Zealand. It's on my "things to do" list for this weekend!
Thank you for the pictures too!
I am trying to get my blog updated. I've been in a blogging funk...too pooped to post!
hugs for you both...

Hey Nicole,
finally there is something to read from you.
You know winters in Germany are not better usually.
And I don't want to hear any complains anyway. A lot of people envy you to. Don't disappoint them :)
In a little more than a week I will start my cycle tour over the alps to Italy. If it is going to rain then I am really screwed.
