May 28, 2007

A do-nothing day.

I took advantage of staying put in one place and slept in today until close to noon. Josh was watching a movie called Beat Street on tv in the living room. He can’t seem to get enough of these break dancing movies he watched with Trin growing up. I can’t believe it because I’ve never even heard of these movies.

We stayed in the house most of today, even though it was a nice sunny day outside, I just wanted to take it easy and have a down day like being on vacation rather than on a trip. I found some magazines in the house so I read those.

For dinner, Josh and I drove into town to pick up a side of rice since we had leftovers from the night before. We also bought another thing of Diet Coke, the price of which had risen overnight. Seriously, there is no stability in the food market in New Zealand. Prices here fluctuate so much!

Josh and I ate dinner and waited until 7:30 to call the Earth and Sky people to see if the 8:00 tour was going to happen. After getting off the phone, Josh said it had been canceled tonight because of the clouds. However, he said the lady he’d spoken to made it sound as though yesterday’s tour had been canceled too so we didn’t feel too bad about having stayed in to watch AI. We’ll try to come back here with Josh’s parents to view the stars.

Josh made another fire in the log burner and we watched movies on tv until we went to bed.
