Finally Here

I'm finally in New Zealand it is so wonderful to finally be here! The flight from LAX to Auckland was a lot shorter than I expected...13 hours. I was able to choose from a very wide variety of movies and T.V shows to make the time go by pretty quick. I met two girls on the plane that sat next to me and they became my traveling partners because they had the same connecting flight as me to Dunedin. They were absolutely hysterical and great to travel with.
I met up with Nolan in Auckland and we were so happy to finally be in NZ. I took a bus to from the international hub to the domestic hub and I was laughing at myself because I was wondering why the bus driver and everyone else driving was on the "wrong side of the road" although they obviously weren't. Silly American!
Nolan and I found a relatively cheap hostile to stay in for the night in Dunedin and then tomorrow morning we take a bus ride to a little town called Clinton to meet with Shaun and Pia and get situated at the farm.
Cheers!
Jon
