Down Under

Suzanne (my sister) arrived last week in New Zealand. We were able to travel New Zealand for a few days, well, actually it was more like sleep in and then get out for the afternoons... Centering our days out of the YWAM Oxford Base made an afternoon out to Christchurch just as easy as an afternoon (quite sunny and nice I might add) to Castle Hill (renowned bouldering & scenic area that just happens to be 45 minute drive from the base). It was a good couple of days.

We flew to Sydney, Australia this past Saturday and have been in the greater Sydney area ever since. Well, not quite, we did spend one day out at the Blue Mountains, to the west of town - quite a beautiful area - prior to returning to the northwest Sydney area. The past day and a half we have been hanging out with David & Candice, a couple from Alaska that I had the pleasure to get to know off and on over the past number of years. We have had a grand time here visiting with them and experiencing a bit of their lives here at the Hillsong College. Tomorrow we will set out to the north.

So, a bit too short & sweet, but, time is not slowing down for any of us. Maybe there will be pictures posted next time... Cheers, mate.
