Normality
Well im back to home base. not to say that im too happy to be back cause leaving bev was one of the most difficult things ive had to do in the last few years. But i guess all will work out in due time.
New Zealand is a real great place. every corner you see and it looks like uve probably seen it in a post card. its simply picturesque. so instead of tellin you a whole story of what the place is like ill just jot it down in point form.
1. auckland is called the city of sails. lotsa sail boats there cause theres a constant source of steady wind. so kite flying season is throught the year.
2. the people are very very friendly. and mostly its a laid back kinda lifestyle. its just very comfortable there.
3. people walk bear foot. they say that everything is so clean that u dont need to wear shoes. i find this behaviour very repulsive but its and accepted fact. especially in summer. everyones goes bear foot.
4. its is im possible to play marbles on the sidewalk. cause theres is no road in new zealand that is absolutly flat. whole bunch of slopes everywhere. you are either walkin up one of down one. even the houses are on the slopes.
5. you cannot turn a corner without seeing either of the 2. an indian restaurant or an chinese restaurant. they have them in hordes there. but i must say that there are more far eastern people there than indians... and the mallus are the dominant indian species...
6. people like settin people up. the dating culture is quite wierd. people get set up more of the time. and there are more single women there than men... HMMM interesting.
7. mac donalds is hi tech. meanin that when ure in line to order theres this person who comes to you with a wireless palm device takes your order and you just show up at ure turn and ure meal is ready. very ..... very.... cool....
8. they are mad about rugby. the ALL BLACKS (rugby team) are celebreties there. there is not one place that i went to that didnt have all black merchandise...
9. they like makin fools of themselves in their advertising. its an advertising culture that doesnt mind laughing at their own madness. quite refreshing.
10. they have a very nice red light district... i didnt go there. but i hear its quite nice...
i have some great pictures of the place i will put up soon. it was a fun trip. i hope i go back there soo. more stories about new zealand to follow.
i really really really really miss bev.....

waiting for the pictures
Wow... cool place. Yeh waiting for the pics. More single women than men. Sounds interesting ;)
Good to see you back.
Aww.. NZ is an AWESOME place to be.... bring on the pictures =D
i m sure bev misses u too.
lol@bear foot....its bare foot :)
burf: yeah soon... just havent found the time to do it after gettin back to work
me: loads of women there. and most very good looking
alysha: yeah the pics are comin
angeldust: the jetlag is causing typos...
May I just say that everyone does not walk bare foot. and you will rarely see that in the winter cos your toes will freeze. You were lucky to get the last of our summer.
There is PLENTY more here to do than play marbles.
The population of NZ has more women than men, hence more single women.
The ALL BLACKS are hot, that may be contributing to their popularity
The guys offered to take you to the red light district but you politely declined, your answer may have been different if I was'nt standing 2 inches away from you? :)
and I really really miss you too :)
Anonymous= Bev?
Duh Thts definitly bev.. :)
Go the ALL BLACKS!!!
Welcome back Clint!
And I gotta agree with Bev - it's too freaking cold to walk barefoot all the time!
If the redlight district you're talking about is affectionately known as "K Rd", I used to live in an apartment in the very heart of that area. I know it well - for all the right reasons, of course!
the anon was bev...
nzm: i went for lunch on K-road. this really neat thai place called joy bong. and its good to be back...
hey sorry am late but then again better late than never..
Welcome back ...warm hug...
seems you had a blast!!!
cheers!!
To echo s., Better late than never. Heard you were back (all lovey doveyed) a few days ago but got too busy working. Glad to hear you had so much fun out there dude. The pics look great and they tell the story. What I don't believe is the tattoo part. No way you got one done.
Anyway, welcome back!
s. yeah i had a real good time... almost didnt want to come back...
jaytie!!! dude!!! who are you?
