On to Australia!

NEW ZEALAND | Monday, 18 February 2008 | Views [528] | Comments [3]

Wow, it's my last night in New Zealand.  I can hardly believe that this trip is nearly over.  I don't have long to write, but I'll try to post some pictures when I get a chance (if not in Sydney, when I return to the states!)

It has been a wonderful trip with lots of quirky coincidences.  A couple of days ago, in the Bay of Islands, I went on a ship cruise and one of the crew was a girl I went to elementary school with (Heather Kelleher).  Then last night I found myself sharing a dorm room with another American--her name was Jonika (rhymes with Monica) and we had exactly the same sandals. 


Just some of the small amusements of late, but I'm getting cut off notw!

Amazing how people-connections happen in far off places sometimes! Pretty fun.

Have a lovely stay in Australia. See you soon :-).

Love,
Mom

Wow! You have met and done such awesome things! You are right it definetly sounds like a "wonderful trip with lots of quirky coincidences;" but the wonderfulness (and, yes, the quirkyness) are because of you. You shine of with goodness!
