kia ora!

well, here i am, still in auckland!  but not for long, i am leaving tomorrow to take a bus to whitianga on the coromandel peninsula.  there, i will meet leah and i will go stay at a hostel with her and presumably some other people for awhile.  i am not even sure of the town i will be in, but it's near cathedral cove she says.  which is supposed to be beautiful.  and hopefully, i won't be so busy and i can just sort of finish editing my photos to put online.  i started and i was going to put some online tonight for you to see, but apparantly i chose a computer with a bad usb port because i can't get it to recognise anything.



sigh!



i also have a phone now through vodafone.  it's a pay-as-you-go thing, which is ridiculous in price as everything is here, but calls to the u.s. are the same as in new zealand.  also, texting is even cheaper so i will probably start sending some of those.  lastly, i checked how much it would be to ship presents home, and it is far too much for it to happen.  no way.  sorry guys, you'll all get letters and absolutely nothing else.  i'm not going to spend $100 buying gifts just so i can spend the same amount mailing them home.



i promise, the next time i post: photos of gorgeous new zealand!  (you know, people really aren't kidding to say that!)
