First day in WELLY


2/27/2012-Monday
Today I woke up at 6:00 to catch a plane for NZ. I was sad to leave Fiji because it was so beautiful and I had such a great experience but I was excited to be heading to the place where I will be living until July! We got on the plane and headed to Auckland, first. When we got to Auckland we had to sit on the plane for a very long time because someone had stolen a wallet and then ditched in the bathroom trash with the money stolen and they got police involved. Auckland was very warm! We got our flight to Wellington, (it was only about 45 minutes long!) and arrived at around 7ish. Wellington was not as warm as Auckland but it was still beautiful. We got in vans and headed to our flats. I am living in a large, old, home that has been renovated to allow for 10 people to live in it. One of the living rooms/parlours is someone’s bedroom. There are 2 bathrooms, one with a shower, one without, and 2 other showers. We have 2 fridges and 2 washers and dryers. It is a big house! Outside our kitchen window we have a lot of hydrangeas. I am living with 9 other girls. Bernadet from the Netherlands, Alex from Italy, Brianna from State College, Natalie from Vietnam who is an international student who studies here, Leann from Connecticut, Sarah from California, Lauren from Massachusetts and Maria our Kiwimate (A New Zealander who lives with us). I met everyone and called home then called it a night.
