Wellington Day 2 - Blogabond

WELLINGTON Day 2 (2km, 438km total) - Most of today we spent running errands around Wellington. Shad got his bike tire trued and his wireless internet fixed. I bought some replacements for the lost or missing S hooks on my panniers. We tried to get Shad's ipod fixed too, but that didn't quite work out, so we'll just wait till we get back to the States.

In the afternoon we met up with our host Lucy who has a flat right off the main drag downtown. She's a uni student here studying languages and primary school teaching. She let us hang out for a while then we all went out for malaysian food and a few drinks. It's been a rather uneventful day, but we got a lot of needed stuff done and I'm feeling much much better. The stomach rot has passed.

Merry Christmas, Shad & Rory!! We are thinking about you on this very white Christmas Day in Omaha! We may get up to 15 inches of snow by the time the storm is finished. It's beautiful, but we may not make it to Sioux Falls tomorrow to see family because of it---bummer. The 11:00 PM Rejoice! candlelight service was cancelled last night because of the storm.
Dad, Alex, Emily, and I enjoyed our traditional grilled burgers with all of the fixin's for supper last night. We miss you!
We wish you God's blessings and safety as you enjoy your trip.
Love you both,
Mom H.

Ahhh, all this sounds so fun! I hope the rest of the trip goes well for you guys. Maybe we'll catch each other on skype soon.
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year, Jerks. I'm gonna go shovel my driveway now.

Merry Christmas Rory and Shad. It sounds like your doing fine. Shad must be healthier than you Rory(knee,stomach). You guys have a wonderful time. I'm going to go snow blow my driveway again for the third time
