Hello Wellington!!!!

Arrived in Wellington safely Khamis malam. Sejuk!!!!! Nasib baik pegi April, bukan July!!

Abg Jastin was there to meet us, lama tak jumpa cousin aku yang sorang nih. I would've told everyone, and I'll say it again that I haven't met him for aaaaaaaages, almost 5 years. Wedding dia pun aku tak dapat pegi! Hampa!!!!!! Esp given that their family has been really nice people, and bila kita visit diorang jek, confirm diorang masak tahap kenduri, sedangkan yang datang tuh satu family jek. And then pegi air terjun kat Yan, layan mandi sungai sambil picnic. Cool as.

First day? Hehe, belum upload pics lagi tapi we loved it!! Lain gila from Brisbane, you'd go around the area and see buildings being built on hills, all over the area.

Seems that Wellington is a really hilly place, and when these developers plan the town, they didn't want to adjust the land contour too much, they somehow built the whole thing around it without 'menarah habis' bukit-bukau kat area nih.

Bukit2 dia pun beralun cantik, alih2 dah nampak kambing beberapa ekor melepak rempit sambil pekena rumput sesuap dua. Kenyang la korang.

Also, very quiet area. Would make a great retirement village, since there's enough amenities to meet your needs, and and awesome view to match. I think it's wonderful, tapi Jastin kata time spring lagi best, penuh bunga. Yeke??? Dammit!!!!!!!!!!!!

One trivial thing? No plate keta pelik. Format sama macam Aussie i.e 3 Letters + 3 Numbers, tapi dia punya zero jadinya macam ini - Ø. Layan gelak dua tiga kali gak ah.

Finally, the accent. Where can you start, or where cin you start? Pagi2 je dengar jiran sebelah cakap, "Yeah, just put it in the litterbox (letterbox)" Ahaha, sure I'll do that, if that stuff is litter material!!!! Nice bunch of people with a unique sounding accent.

Gotta go, nak jumpa Farah jiran kitorang lak tengahari nih, kat Um Te Aro (Believe it or not, tuh nama tempat tu...How Maori is that?)

Will update soon, happy holidays!!!
