Monday - Friday, May 3 - 7, 2010
On Monday I worked on homework while Jesse hiked Mt. Victoria and explored Wellington, he left early Tuesday morning. The weekly fire alarm was Tuesday morning at 9 am, from someone making toast.
On Wednesday a few of the Nexus Americans were hosting a Cinco De Mayo party in the common area and made Mexican food, then everyone went out later.

On Friday, Raizel came over around 6:30 and we left for the Hurricanes vs. Reds (Wellington vs. Queensland) rugby game. We got fish n’ chips for the kiwi experience, and watched the Reds score several easy points the first half. In the second half, the Hurricanes pulled way ahead and won 44-21.

Left with Nicole and Heather just before 2 pm to go to the Toi Whakaari NZ drama school for the WIFT (Women in Film and Television) Art and Design panel. It was a small presentation and discussion about the current state of Film and TV design with Lord of the Rings trilogy and King Kong art department manager Chris Hennah, costume designer Lesley Burkes-Harding, set decorator Ra Vincent, and make-up artist Michal Biggar.
We planned to go to the observatory for a 7 pm Saturday night viewing, but decided it was too cloudy. Nicole had a lot of apples to get rid of so we made pie and cobbler the rest of the night.

Slept in and went with Nicole to the waterfront farmers market. There was a fresh fish boat there we hadn’t seen before. We had planned to go to Red Rocks, but Heather was busy.
