Hello from NZ




So we finally made it abroad. Our flight from Sydney was delayed significantly, in what seems to be a pattern for Aerolineas Argentinas - our flight out of Auckland tomorrow is delayed as well. But yes, we arrived in Auckland at about 7.00pm local time on Tuesday. Our friend Jeremy (Gemstar) met us at the airport and proceeded to give us an unintentional tour of the industrial backstreets of Auckland. Nonetheless we eventually got to his house in the suburbs.


We spent today walking around inner city Auckland, even getting to the top of the Sky Tower - apparently the tallest structure in the Southern Hemisphere (though Steven and Luke think a new tower on the Gold Coast is actually taller). Tonight Gem's cousin Jon is coming over, which should be good - we know him (and Gem, actually) from our old World of Warcraft days. We found out our flight to Buenos Aires, and subsequently Santiago tomorrow has also been delayed - by about 4 hrs, putting it at 10pm. We're having a great time thus far, though we're pretty tired - weird timezone shifts combined with Luke's snoring have worn us out.


I'm trying to upload a few photos, but it's not going well - so hang tight?


- Adios

Oi, achei seu blog pelo google está bem interessante gostei desse post. Gostaria de falar sobre o CresceNet. O CresceNet é um provedor de internet discada que remunera seus usuários pelo tempo conectado. Exatamente isso que você leu, estão pagando para você conectar. O provedor paga 20 centavos por hora de conexão discada com ligação local para mais de 2100 cidades do Brasil. O CresceNet tem um acelerador de conexão, que deixa sua conexão até 10 vezes mais rápida. Quem utiliza banda larga pode lucrar também, basta se cadastrar no CresceNet e quando for dormir conectar por discada, é possível pagar a ADSL só com o dinheiro da discada. Nos horários de minuto único o gasto com telefone é mínimo e a remuneração do CresceNet generosa. Se você quiser linkar o Cresce.Net(www.provedorcrescenet.com) no seu blog eu ficaria agradecido, até mais e sucesso. If is possible add the CresceNet(www.provedorcrescenet.com) in your blogroll, I thank. Good bye friend.
