leaving on a jet plane

I am here in New Zealand! Kiwi Land! Middle Earth! Narnia!- ok i'm a dork The plane ride wasn't too bad. I'm a little thrown out of wack though about the time. Right now it is about 10:45 in the morning here, Sat. the 14th. It feels like the afternoon though. Let me be the first to wish you happy valentines!

I'll put some pictures up when I get a chance, but so far everything seems pretty good. It was a bit cloudy flying over New Zealand, but from what I saw it was gorgeous. By the way I have learned that Dunedin is pronounced Do-knee(like the body part)-din and its O-ta (like la) -go for Otago. I had those a bit wrong. Everyone has been really nice so far, the university taxi guy that came to get me was funny. He said he had a strong accent because he is from farther south, which it is true- I wasn't quite sure what he was saying most of the time, but I've learned quite well how to pretend like I understand.

My flat is really nice too, and I haven't met anyone yet but I see that a few people have moved in. I think I may go out and explore, he said there was a market somewhere today. So anyway I am here- Thank you all so much for your support and I will keep you updated. Right now I might be stealing Internet I'm not sure how that situation will go in the future. Have a great rest of your Friday~ So far sat. is going well, you'll like it. Melanie
