the mount

arrived today in tauranga, new zealand for what will likely be the last trip of the year. nice weather today, certainly a good departure from what's happening at home.

after landing, went directly to factory, surprisingly not as jet-lagged as i'd figured i'd be.

this bump is mount maunganui - view taken from the front steps of the hotel. seems fairly quiet here right now, but i hear it's quite the celebration at the new year. wish i was able to stay to see that.
