Arrived at the Wairuna

Hello!
Nolan and I woke up early yesterday morning and wanted to make it to the farm as soon as possible. We walked around for a bit in Dunedin and checked out some of the sights and caught some breakfast. The people in NZ are especially friendly and it is quite refreshing. We walked about three miles to the bus station and found out that the bus didn't leave for another three hours so we had a bunch of time to kill. I was extremely tired and still pretty jet lagged so I found a gorgeous park just across the street and we hung out there, read and did some much needed resting.
Nolan realized that there was a sports bar across the street from us and the drinking age is 18 so we decided to take advantage of that. The bar was full of middle age men gambling on hoarse races and here was nolan and I drinking are first purchased legal beer. Nolan and I couldn't stop laughing and we felt kind of out of place haha.
We caught the bus and I sat next to this kid that was my age and he was in love with the fact that we were from America. We compared things back and forth about one anthers countries and he was definitely a good laugh and most defiantly a character.
Once we arrived in Clinton where the farm was we had to walk about ten mintues and then we were finally at Wairuna. It is absolutely gorgeous. (I'll be posting pictures very soon.) Shaun was quite welcoming and set us up where we would be staying...extremely unique accommodations. There is another helper here by the name of Esart...i could be butchering the spelling...he is from Spain and he is 29 years old. He was once a mechanical engineer and he saved up enough money to travel and do what he loves most. He is very insightful and very interesting guy...we all get along great.
Today we harvested over 5000 carrots from the farm. It was about a  six 1/2 work day after cleaning the carrots and selecting which were going to be sold and which were going to be fed to the pig. (He eats sooooo much) Harvesting the carrots was a great time although you are on your hands and knees and in the dirt...you have a gorgeous view of rolling hills and it is so green! Priceless views out here.
That's about all for now...i'll be back on soon to up load some pics of this gorgeous landscape here in NZ.
Bye bye for now!
