New Zealand!!!

We are in Auckland! It's a fair bit like Seattle, only the ocean is on 2 sides of of it. Yesterday after we arrived and found the hotel, we went to a familys house for dinner. We didn't know the people, but we had met a relative of there's on our road trip around the US. They were a pleasant family, and we had a great time, the highlight of the evening though, was their tiny dog. The dog was smaller that a cat! I think it was a fox terrier or something, this tiny dog had so much energy! It was rocketing around the house the entire time, it was hilarious! Today we visited my dads old school, it was amazing! They had a huge gym complex, gorgeous sports fields and grounds, even a swimming pool for heavens sake! My dads name was everywhere on citizenship awards, sport trophies, he was even a head prefect! After that we headed to my dads cousins house for dinner. They had a huge trampoline, it was really fun! We just got back from that, and it's 10:40pm, so I should probably be going to bed... (9 days till Christmas, yay!)
