We're here in Auckland, at last! Arrived here on May 20 via Cathay Pacific. Except for Shannen's ear problem during landings, wala naman kaming naging problem. Mga 1pm na kami nakalabas ng airport but it was really cold in the parking lot (17degrees).
On our first night here, talagang nag-chill ako sa lamig. We had to turnon the heater. I must admit that I underestimated the temperature down here. Di pala kaya ng powers ko.
The 2-bedroom flat we are renting in nice (newly renovated) but a little small for us (ako, Henry, MIL and 2 kids). We pay $310/week to the kiwi landlord. Dapat $290 lang pero pinadagdagan sa amin nang ipaalam ni Henry that MIL is staying with us too.
Last Sunday, my friend Len invited us to her place for a dinner. Uso yon dito. Dapat nakapagdala kami ng pagkain but because we just arrived, next time na lang ako babawi.
By the way, here are my phone numbers - +64 9 4102524 (res) and +64211744990 (mobile). Contact me if you have time... pls.
PS: medyo malayo ang internet cafe dito kaya madalang pa rin akong makakapag-post.

hi jink,
ask ko lang magkano yung rent nyo sa peso? dito kasi sa singapore ang rent sa flat mga $700- 1500(singapore dollar)ang $1 33php.Ano ba tawag sa pera dyan.Ingat kayo
welcome to new zealand, jinkee! medyo magkalayo nga tayo. pero hayaan mo kapag nadako ako ulet dyan sa lugar nyo, papasyalan ko kayo. :D
hayaan mo, jinkee. kapag bumalik na sa pinas MIL mo, sabihin mo kay husbandry, ipabalik sa landlord nyo to $290/wk ang upa. baka malimutan ni landlord eh. ehehehe....
