Woohoo, the day has finally arrived for our trip to New Zealand! It’s hard to believe that it’s been over two months since we left New Hampshire and that the first leg of our journey is just about over. We’re on the train right now heading up the California coast (we can watch people surfing from the train!) to our final destination in the US–LAX. As we get ready to head to New Zealand we’re both feeling incredibly lucky to be doing this and thankful for all the beautiful places we’ve already seen and great people that we’ve met and stayed with along the way. And, after Tuesday’s historic inauguration, it’s nice to leave home knowing that things are in good hands!
The first bit of exciting news that we already got from NZ is that the first farm we’ll be visiting–an avocado farm and organic beer brewery–is having a beer festival while we’re there. The folks we’ll be working for asked if we could stick around to help out at the festival, which, of course, didn’t take any arm twisting! The next time you hear from us we’ll be in NZ, and we can’t wait to hear more from all of you. It’s great to get updates from home and hear how everyone is doing–please keep the comments, emails, skype calls, etc. going!
