Things I've Learned

Just thought I'd compile a few of the things I've learned so far on this trip:

1. There are ok hostels, and then there are awesome hostels. So far no hostels like the movie Hostel. 

2. Meteorologists in New Zealand have even less of a clue than in the states. Also, the weather changes every 10 minutes. Bring a damn jacket.

3. Tequila shots after 1am are still a bad idea in the Southern Hemisphere. Even if they're free.

4. I could watch rugby on tv for the rest of my life and I don't think I'd ever really miss football.

5. When traveling with new acquaintances, check their directions before you go. I've just been on a wonderful bus adventure through the South Auckland suburbs because one of them had fantastic online directions with phrases like "I think" and "-ish" in them. Story to come once I've composed it in an enjoyable manner.
