today i have been for a big long walk around the city, it was really nice and i have started to really like auckland! i have scoped out a couple of well good presies for when i am leaving NZ for you lot! i also went to see deep blue in the cinema which was really good. I have started to have some strange ideas about when i get home MAYBE doing a marine biology course at university, but thats one hell of a big maybe. auckland certainly has nothing on amsterdam, but its fairly nice to walk around the harbour. tomorrow i think i will go to either rangitoto island or maybe devonport. or i might just sit around for the day! i hope you bunch are all ok. i miss you all lots and lots. i cannot believe i will be home in about 6 months!
