Another day in Kaikoura. We slept in a little, had some breakfast and went online for awhile before Andrea left for work. I (John) hung out at the house (see below) for awhile,
before heading to Hislops Cafe (see below) to visit Andrea and have a coffee
I returned home after my coffee and worked on our blog for awhile before heading down to the local pub to meet friends Fran, Cally and Megan for quiz night. Andrea stopped down after work and we stayed for a little while before heading home. We watched a movie then headed to bed.
Day 105,
Started with a nice breakfast then some internet work and writing a few postcards. We did a little shopping on the way to work (for Andrea). After dropping Andrea off at work, I headed to run a few errands and grab some socks for Andrea. After bringing Andrea her socks I headed home and relaxed while I waited for her to come home from work. When she got home we watched some TV and hung out before heading to bed. Very exciting day!
Day 106,
I did something new today! Anyway, we got up, had some breakfast and did some stuff online before Andrea headed to work. While Andrea was at work I headed down to the beach with our housemate David to do a little fishing. The fish don't bite very well in the winter here, but it was fun to get out and get a line in the water. We sat on the beach watching our lines until the weather got bad and we had to reel in without a single bite. We stopped by Hislops Cafe to pick up Andrea after work and headed home. We relaxed at home for awhile before Andrea went back to work and I headed up to Cray Cottage to hang out with Fran and Cally for a little while. We relaxed at home later that evening watching TV before heading to bed.
Day 107,
Andrea woke up and headed to work for the morning shift. I slept in a little then went down to visit Andrea at work and get a coffee. I went back home and did some planning for travels after we leave Kaikoura. When Andrea got home we had some dinner, did a little computer work and watched some Gray's Anatomy and Private Practice before heading to bed.
Day 108,
Andrea got up early to head to the standard Monday 7:30 morning meeting at Hislop's Cafe. Andrea came home and woke me up, we had some breakfast and did some internet stuff before Andrea went to work. I relaxed awhile before heading to the movie store and Hislops for a coffee with our friend Cally. After the excursion I headed back home and waited for Andrea to come home from work. We watched a little TV and relaxed before heading to bed, there is a pattern developing here.
Day 109,
We got up, had a little breakfast and then talked to our good friends Jeff and Lydia on skype. It was really cool to talk and see them (most parts). After a great conversation we headed into town to have some Thai food and stop by the local internet cafe to print off a CV. I dropped the CV off at a local pub/restaurant (I am still looking for a job just not quite as intensely as before). From downtown Kaikoura we headed out to New World grocery store and fooled around a little...
After getting a few things at the grocery store we headed back to the house for a little dinner with our housemates. Jana made some great pizzas for dinner.
We stuffed ourselves with pizza then headed to the local pub for quiz night. Some how Andrea and I won and our housemates David and Jana took second place. I'm not sure if we would have won without help from David. With our double win we had $75 worth of alcohol to drink. We played some pool and drank our drinks, then headed home to bed.
Day 110,
We slept in a little (or alot) then had some good breakfast and relaxed. We watched a couple of movies and did some laundry. We keep pretty quiet all day and just enjoyed the scenery.
Later in the evening Jana cooked some awesome seafood chowder.
She even stopped cooking long enough to take a picture with her husband David.
It was some of the best chowder we have ever had! Thanks Jana!
