Flight, Arrival, First Days! =)

Hey, everybody!

I am in NEW ZEALAND right now and it's awesome! The weather is sunny (22 degrees) and the landscape is amazing!!! Palm trees everywhere in town, beautiful beaches and streets, mountains all around etc.!

On my flight from Singapore to Auckland - Australia from above

Well, my flight was really exhausting and long but it was quite fun, too because in fact it was a real good new experience! Singapore Changi Airport for example: I haven't seen such a clean airport in my whole life!!! That's just really cool...

In Auckland, I had to take the Inter-terminal bus but that was okay. Unfortunately, my flight from Singapore arrived too early there so I had "plenty of time" =(

Then, in Nelson, it was raining cats and dogs! But well, I had to get to the Airport building through that rain! There was no gate since the plane was too small.

Then, I met my hostmother and she is really really nice! The boys are not here yet but they will arrive this Monday. The dogs and the cats are realy cool (the dogs are boxers and if someone says they're ugly - which they are certainly not - Sharon will get a little angry!).

So, I took the bus to Nelson city for the first time today and it's just great! Nelson consists of 4 major boroughs: Nelson City, Stoke, Tahunahui and Richmond. Tahunahui is where Bill Gates has got his own villa so this should say everything. I live in Stoke, just around the corner is Nayland College. That school sucks! It's really big but the atmosphere is really friendly and so on...

Well, I am in an Internet Cafe right now and the charge is growing every minute! So, I hope you're all fine!

Greetz,
