Very Merry New Year And Happy Christmas
Christmas
Christmas was different.
It was warm, almost hot and really lightful. As Christmas food there was fish and salads.
Huge breakfast at Hoogefelts and big lunch at home. Quite big dinner, leftovers.
Swimming in our pool and on boxing day water skiing, if I wanted to.
Everywhere host cousins, host ungels or host grandfather. Calling to home and talking with grand mom. Living mostly just sleeping in Serena's room.
Days between
We left 9am to Bethells Beach. Walking in the river and sliding down from huge sand hills. It was heaps of fun. We never really went to the beach where The Piano was filmed but next time then.
These Between days I met lots of interesting people. Harry's friends, Fred's birthday quests or just random guys who hopes that me and Luisa won't fell a sleep while watching Madagascar 2.
I saw Twilight and I still don't know did I like it.
New Year
New year was interesting. Ir really was. From at least start of December I have had different plans what to do and where and who is going to celebrate it with me. Still even in New Year's eve I didn't know what was going to happen.
We had plans with Luisa for example to go to some beach and sleep there. Watch some fireworks. Meet heaps of people. We were suppose to go to a boat with my host parents. We planned to go to Auckland and watch the Madagascar 2 and we planned to meet some people.
Our plans didn't really work so finally we ate some pizza for dinner. After pizza and playing sisters we went to Auckland and to Viaducd Basin and we were running under some roofs.
Afterwords we walked to Hilton Hotels Bar and we weren't even the only ones who wore converse. Still people were watching.
Hilton Hotels Bar wasn't good enough for us, so later on we found ourselves from Argentinean bar.
Just before midnight we went to good place to see Sky Tower and we saw some awesome fireworks, shooted from Sky tower!
In home I realized that I was almost in German TV. Ariane send message that she saw Auckland's Sky Tower on the news and well, me and Luisa were standing right next to it. Almost.
Well now it's going to be year 2009 and anymore half of my time in NZ is left.
