Arrived to New Zealand at 6 O Clock in the morning and welcomed by cold air and lots and lots of rain. Was a big shock to find the wooly clothes, hats and gloves to put on. Clebrated my 27th birthday on the Tuesday and had a good day. Splahed out on a lunch out in an irish pub and ended up there until 10 at night. There was a jammin session on and they played Whiskey in the Jar for me and the pub sang Happy Birthday to me! Met up with Sarah kerr the next day and she took us a drive in the Port hills and we waked her new dog along the beach next to her house in Sumner.
