I can’t belive how fast everything is going, it is already week 12 of the semester, and 10 days in New Zealand went by so fast! New Zealand was amazing, we spent 10 days exploring all over the South Island. Here is just a quick over view of what we did. Day 1- We went from Christchurch to Fox Glacier. It was a long day of driving, but we saw some really great parts of the country. Day 2- Climbed Fox Glacier, it was actually really difficult to do but so pretty when we reached the top.

Here is the link: http://community.webshots.com/user/kj11606 My week was mostly uneventful, just classes as usual. The weekend was great. Several other international students and I spend Saturday in Melbourne. We took the train into the city and when to the city aquarium. They had so many great fish, every one had a good time (we even found Nemo!) We spend the afternoon exploring the city and doing some shopping. We ended up going to a footy game (Australian Rules Football). It’s a really cool sport that I like nothing I have seen before, it is sort of a combination of American football, soccer, and rugby, but with a lot more chaos since there are 18 ... read more
