It's wierd adjusting to such a different time. I'm exhausted in the evenings (even now at a little after 5pm I could go to bed!) and I start waking up about 5am...then 6am...then I'm wide awake before 7.
So there's 2 other Minnesotans in my department! I met one yesterday...she heard I was here and came by my office to meet me...I think she was quite happy to here my lovely accent! The other is in MN visiting right now.
I had dinner at my supervisor's last night and he took me for a little drive along the pennisula beforehand. Man, it is so beautiful here! I got to see some awesome views of the harbor and ocean and it really wasn't even a good time of the day to go. I totally wish I would have had the camera and binocs with me...but there will be plenty of trips to the pennisula in the future. Robert and his wife are from Montreal and are very social so dinner was great!
I've already got quite a few birds on my NZ list! My officemate studies birds so she's lending me a bird book and I think I'll purchase my own this weekend. No penguins yet...but it won't be long...
I promise...pictures soon...
