Met a New Friend

I bet you can't guess where she's from...

...that's right, Germany!

I met Friedi when she was checking in at the front desk. We got to talking and decided to hang out for the day. We went to Devonport and ate chips (fries to all you Americans) at the top of Mt Victoria. Then more walking around and finally dinner at Pizza Nicolino, a Greek pizza joint. I had some warm chocolate mud cake for dessert... it was sooooooooooo good. After that, we rode the ferry home and picked up some food to make breakfast with tomorrow.

I also picked up a SIM card, a new camera (my current one started making loud clicking sounds when the lens zoomed in or out) and booked my travel arrangements, I'm flying into Christchurch tomorrow (the 8th), and then catching a Kiwi Experience tour the next day. I went with the "Southern Round-Up" tour, which hits most of the spots in the south island, and has a minimum travel time of 10 days.
