Aimee and Chris in NZ


So we're back!
NZ is just the same as we left it, but with a few changes.
Lambton Quay looks to have been under constant improvement, especially with the images of dead bodies on the street to encourage people to look BOTH WAYS before crossing the road.

I have had this fear for a while that i'm going to get run over here. After forcing myself to look left - right - left while in Canada, going back to right - left - right has been harder then I thought.
Still, switching back to driving correctly has been easy.

At the request of Precious, Kristen and Jaena, no more posts about the weather.
So now i'm going to do book reviews:

The current book i'm reading is called 'The Ruins', which is also a movie about to come out on the big screen soon. It gets off to a slow start, but it's actually getting pretty good now that people are starting to die.
The premise is of some kids who are in Cancun Mexico - instead of spending the whole time relaxing on the beach they one day decide to visit some ruins.
They then get stuck in the ruins and face their deaths in new and exciting ways.
Scared yet?

Me neither. But it's still a good read, and I've got 3 more books from the geniuses that host the BBC motoring show Top Gear to read before I go back to Toronto.

Two more weeks in this lovely country we call home and I need your help faithful reader.
Aimee has been rather slack in posting to this blog. She did a couple of posts when we were in San Francisco nine months ago, but hasn't written anymore.
I need lots of people to comment, asking, pleading, begging for her to write some more.
If you don't, i'm going to talk about the weather some more... now where did I put that book on tidal currents?
