Well, it is Thursday night, and things are slowing down a bit. With Peter and Carol still in India, I am getting used to the place. However, Wellington is not the biggest of cities, and there is definitely not as much to do as there was in the beginning.
For all that know me well, it may shock you that as I write this it is past my bedtime. Since I've been in NZ I go to bed around 9, and wake up around 6:30 or 7. The time change has completely improved my normal bad habits.
Tonight it is past 9:30 because I was chatting with Sacha about our plans, and also my postage problems. Apparently I fell into a bit of a tourist trap here in Wellington. I walked into a tourist shop because it had the word tourist in the name, and overall, that is what I am. Most of the stuff was junk, but I decided to buy a few postcards since I was there. When I was checking out they asked me if I wanted to buy stamps to go w/ the postcards. I thought that was great, because it saved me a trip to a mail store somewhere. So, when I went to mail a few of the postcards today, it turns out the stamps I bought can only be mailed in very specific post boxes that are rather hard to find. It is very weird. Sacha helped me find out where I could mail them, and she is actually going to try and take them when she goes to work tomorrow. They can't just go through NZ Post. So, we'll see if some of you out there ever receive my postcards that are going through this mysterious box!
Night night. I am headed to bed
