We've been back in Queenstown, New Zealand for three weeks now for our third season. If you're counting , that's five consecutive winters, my last summer being that of 2008.
For the very first time, Pete and I had a place to move into on arrival. I'm super duper excited to be living with three good friends: Ryan, Zeljka and Gar.
As we touched down at the airport, I was pleased to see that snow was already accumulating on the mountain tops. Unfortunately, I spoke too soon; currently my whole household is temporarily laid off work until the snow gods decide to be more generous. Sigh.
As such, we are living off my few weeks of salary that I was lucky enough to make and having a grand old time. Our days now consist of watching unhealthy amounts of "The Wire", a daily walk into town where we try desperately to avoid all the alluring/expensive activities and cooking. Life is still good.
Of note? Zeljka turned a quarter century. Happy birthday to our lovely croatian friend.

Just one of many painted camper vans. I especially like this one.

An awesome homemade addition to our flat: the shot ski.
