Yes, I do and love the comments! It doesn't notify me when I get comments, so sometimes it takes me a while to find them. But thanks for never letting me down in the comment department, Gillian. :)

Hey! Finally got around to reading this. WOW. I hope you're blocking off a month or two to work on your resume!!!!! Sounds like you're having the time of your life. So happy for you....
(Do you read this???)
Meagan
Hey you! Your blog's working again. Update!
Gillian
Hey Adrienne! Such a long post... thanks for the update.
1. How can they not insulate their houses when they have 4 seasons like us? I'm so confused. Is it all houses or just houses designed for foreigners?? If you don't pay for hyrdo maybe you can get a small space heater?
2. So they handle their internet like communists???? That's so weird. I guess it really wasn't that long ago since our internet was done like that.... funny how fast things change.
3. Congrats about school. Wow. That's amazing. Its hard not to think you're in the right place when everything seems to come so naturally.
4. Travelling is like a drug then. I hope I can discover that for myself, but for now I'll have to take your word on it. It does sound like its been an exciting year!
5. I'd be interested to hear more about the similarities between the two countries. Do you think they're similar because they are both westernized or is it more than that? Maybe NZ is influenced by Austrailia the same way we are influenced by the States?
Thanks for posting!

Hey Girl!!!! I'm soo glad things are working out for you in NZ. With your description of your adventure i can almost imagine myself right there with you....ALMOST!! hahhaha. Nothing here in NS changes so no updates. If Dwayne leaves me, I'll come to NZ and hang out with you!!! lol
Gillian

Keep us posted!

Dear Dr. Phil, how come I can't have as much fun as Adrienne? I'd like to move to NZ, have lots of friends, and have a PhD drop into my life! She even gets to climb hills all day, take pictures of strange Ghandi like statues, and could get eaten by a killer orca at any given moment. It felt good to rate her latest blog posting 0 out of 5. Is that wrong?

Wow. That IS quite the hike. Thanks so much for posting all those pictures; they're very cool to see. Imagine the thigh and butt muscles you'll have after a few months of that hike home!
So does that mean you roll to work??
I had never thought about the world map. Shows how egocentric I am! The NZ one makes more sense though if you think about it... having the Prime Meridian on the far left. Very cool!
Gillian
Keep the posts coming plese!
