We're here!! And loving it! We arrived after 2 days of flying, with no problems at all. We breezed through customs (except for a little check of our tent for Canadian soil) and headed to our place in Auckland. Check it out - www.columbard.com Our room is tiny, with the smallest balcony overlooking the city - we love it! This week we'll be hanging out in Auckland, figuring out bank accounts, work ID numbers and possibly a car. Your prayers are appreciated.

We are headed to church on Sunday, with a friend of a friend. We are looking forward to meeting some Kiwis, and making some new connections. We will try to update later this week with some pictures of Auckland. So far, its been a beautiful place.

We'd love to hear from you! "Flick" us an email (that's a NZ saying).
