Day 77 - It's complete

77 is our last day eh? Perfection!

We are finished! Its 8 AM on Thursday morning. Our schedule is to PARTY! Today we are meeting at the church for a surprise something... and then for lunch we are going over to Nigel and Rachel's bus (their house, they live in a big bus) for a BBQ! Then at 4:55 we hop the train from Paraparaumu to Wellington, a bus to the airport, a flight at 7:30 to Auckland, a flight from Auckland to LA at 9:45, an arrival at LAX at 2:40 PM, picked up by Joy's family, visit with them until Saturday at 7:50 AM when we fly to Chicago, and then return to Minneapolis on Saturday at 3:49 PM. WHEW! See many of you soon!

I thought my last blog would contain something fun! A list of things that are strange in New Zealand:

- You drive on the left side of the road
- You drive on the right side of the car
- If you are in the left lane turning left and a car in the right lane also needs to turn in that direction, they have the right of way. You need to let them overtake you.
- There are no furnaces or ventilation in NZ houses.
- More yield signs than stop signs
- Everyone text messages because its too expense to make cell phone calls

That's all I can think of now! See you soon!

you know what would be cool? If you guys blogged about your everyday lives. "i got up at like 7:30, went to work, came home and watched tv for an hour ate dinner and went to bed". It would give me something to follow. I got nothing to do now at work but work!
