NZ 2007

New Zealand 2007

I hope everyone has been enjoying the year so far and is having a good 2007.  I am still in NZ, and things are going well with my girlfriend Emily.  I am still working at IBM out here on a Government project.  The first phase of it is now nearing completion to unfold a functional Government Network as we now join all of the agencies onto it.  I have been trying to do a bit of study amongst other things, and am sitting my MS Exchange Certification in a few weeks time, then I will finally be MCSA.

So far this year, I have done quite a few things.  I attended the International Rugby 7s in February, have been Jet Boating and Hiking.  I spent Easter in Australia in Kosciusko National Park (see Australia Page for Photos), and I have just returned from a great trip to the South Island. 

 

It is pretty cold at the moment in NZ, the temperature has really plummeted over the last couple of weeks.  The Ski Season starts next week too and I have a season pass this year, and a Snowboard in the cupboard.  I have booked some time off in August, so if anybody fancies a break, it'd be nice to see you over here then.  Hopefully I will get up the mountain at least 1 weekend a month from now on to get some good boarding in.  Next week Emily and I are off to Melbourne which we are excited about.  Hopefully it will be a bit warmer over there, although probably won't be too warm being Winter.  I'll keep you posted and add some pictures on my return.  Emily and I are planning to visit Malaysia later in the year, and I may stop by for a visit to the UK too, and possibly return to Japan for a few days on my return.  Hopefully I'll catch up with you all somewhere, some time in the year.  Take care, keep in touch and see you soon.
