Hey Everybody!
We've just been working away, and by that I mean 30 hours a week in New Zealand. Things have been pretty good, we've had an awakening these last couple of weeks that we actually have to work here and that the jobs are not very interesting. I have been putting new label after new label on merchandise that had to be repriced, and Johnny has been dealing with grumpy co-workers. He also has to turn down shifts because they don't have enough employees and I have to beg for shifts in order to get enough work. But last week we had our days off together and we went for a beautiful hike. The hike took us to the top of a very large cliff that overlooked the ocean and city. It was a pretty steep climb up and so the way down was much more enjoyable! The yellow flowers in the picture were all over the hills and they smelled awesome (sort of like vanilla). We are now looking forward to our next days off together, and in a couple weeks, a trip to Doubtful Sound in Fiordland National Park.
Kia Ora, Mae

The yellow plants you like so much are an introduced species from Scotland called gorse. Kiwis apparently hate the stuff because it chokes all the natural vegetation. I really enjoy reading your blog guys. Keep it up. -phil
