Temporary Office

Here I am at the office. Jill has complained that there were not many pictures of me, so there you are!! My glasses have been envied wherever I go--I may get another pair and put my bifocals in them.

Arrival in New Zealand

After weighing our suitcases a million times and making sure they were at the limit, but not over the limit, we went to the Sydney airport and left for Auckland, NZ last Wednesday evening. It took a few extra minutes for them to check our "imports from PNG" and they allowed us to store our extra duffle bag there for 3 weeks at the airport for only $20. We thought that was a deal!! This Saturday our missionary couple replacements were supposed to arrive, but because of visa problems are delayed. So we took advantage of the situation and left Saturday morning to drive north to Bay of the Islands. It was a great weekend. We went to church on the east coast and then drove for a couple of hours and made it to the west coast. Here is Paul at the Bay of Islands!
