Just a quick note today. I am safely arrived in Christchurch, New Zealand and am at our host's wonderful house. Below are some of my first glimpses of New Zealand from the plane. This is a big trip for me in that it is the first time I am south of the equator, the first time to New Zealand and the first time flying over the Pacific Ocean.
Leaving Edmonton we had just had the first snowfall of the year after a long autumn. But here in New Zealand, spring is here with summer just around the corner.

I am not too tired, I did not work much on the plane but managed to get 7 hours of sleep, which was really really nice. Feeling quite refreshed and should be able to stay awake until tonight. It is of course 1pm local time on Monday, Nov. 14th, 2011 but only 5pm Edmonton time on Nov 13, 2011.
Will post soon.
Justin
