Home Sweet Home!

The days of living out of our suitcases and carrying all our food in a box in the car boot are now over! Temporarily. We are going to setup in a small seaside resort town called Napier for the next couple of months. http://www.napier.nz.com/


Above is the beautiful view from the patio of our new home! We have managed to get into a swanky flat share on top of the bluff in town. Dion loves that he can check the waves from the window and go down the hill for a surf.


As of today we have both secured work here in town. Which makes Dion especially happy as I have been hanging around in cafes and at the beach waiting for the right job to call me back. Meanwhile, Dion is working his butt off as a labourer (carrier of heavy shit) for a construction company. I have been brought on as a barista in a busy downtown cafe. I am looking forward to unlimited coffee but will miss my unlimited free time :)
Everything seems to be going well just in time for Christmas! Uncle Bob and Auntie Ellen are coming down for the holidays and we will be here with Susan and her family. It just doesn't feel right that it is Christmas when everyone is getting geared up for the summer. We are missing our friends and family holiday season get togethers. Happy Holidays to Everyone!!
