We found a place to live today!!!!!!

Auckland just wasn't for us, so we flew to Christchurch today in hopes of a better environment to settle in.  The plane ride was beautiful!!!!!  Really bumpy, but beautiful!  Here are a few of the views from our plane window.

It's an adorable flat in a suburb of 

Christchurch called New Brighton.  We're living with this really cool guy named Ashley, he's a 26 year old business owner and SURFER!  He has a really sweet dog and an orange (and very friendly) cat.  

Our room is pretty big and we're buying the bed too so that we don't have to worry about finding one.

The best part is that it is about an eighth of a block away from the OCEAN!  There is just a 

small hill we have to walk over and then this is the view that we see.  I can't believe that we are going to live here....seriously.  I will post pics of 

the flat once we take a few :)

Other than that things are going really swell here!!  I have been collecting some funny pictures of other amazing differences between NZ and the US.  When we aren't on total shit for internet I will post them :)

I made these pictures too big...per Sean's request (thanks a lot, sean).  haha.  oh well, here are a few more that we took from our OCEAN VIEW.

Cheers for now,

Tim and KT
