Why hello!
After a day in Sydney, we stayed the night with a couchsurfer which was great. We explored a bit of the harbor where Nemo was, and went to a Hillsong service for Mel. Was really good!
Fine flight to New Zealand, and here we are in Christchurch, staying with more kind couchsurfers who have lively children and a gorgeous garden. We will be camping in their back yard.
What a place this is. Another land with a crazy history of struggle between First Nations peoples, and exploring settlers. It brings you to tears. We have seen some incredible paintings and artwork of the Maori...and are learning more history. They named this land 'Aotearoa' when they discovered it about 1000 years ago.
The Creator's creativity is so vast and awe-inspiring!
How we all need to know the heart of Jesus and be healed by His love.
What we've been up to?
wondering about all sorts of things, photography, lots of walking, seeing loads of art, bird-watching, baby-sitting kiddos, trying to find jobs in Alaska, doing dishes, packing and re-packing luggage, getting free food from the hostel 'free food shelf', reading, dreaming, and tonight to an outdoor Shakespeare play -'The Merry Wives of Windsor'
Tah!
