37 days to go........

We are back in New Zealand for this post. I'll be honest, I wish we were back in New Zealand now! I heart New Zealand. When we went to NZ it was August 2005 which made it their winter time. Which is why most of our pictures we are in jackets and long pants. We only visited the North island which has winters pretty comparable to Southern California. Have I already said all this stuff? I should go back and read my other NZ posts to see if I'm repeating things here. Please hold...........nope, I'm not repeating myself.

So, since it was slightly cold and rainy in NZ we always had our jackets and umbrellas handy. We were walking along trying to find Karangahape Road when it started to rain. Rain it did, a little harder than we wanted to be walking through. Luckily, we just happened to be in front of the cutest little cafe ever. A Starbucks it was not! They had some covered seating on the side walk so we grabbed a seat and Lance went in and ordered us some coffee. Now, I am not the biggest coffee drinker ever. When I used to start my Disney job at 4am I used to drink it a lot! But that's because Wendy is a bad influence! =) Now that I start my Northrop job at 7am, I very rarely drink it. Wait, I'm off track, back to NZ! So we've established, I don't drink coffee. But this latte was the best latte EVER.

Look how cool! Are these people artists or what!?!?! Looking at it right now, I want to dive right in and drink it up. Except for the fact it's 80 degrees outside right now! If it weren't so darn warm outside I'd want to jump right in and drink it all up!

This was the perfect moment! I was sitting on the sidewalk in NZ watching the rain, drinking a fabulous looking and tasting latte, sitting with my boyfriend, (who obviously is now my fiance' yippee!!!) hanging out in NZ. How awesome. We just sat there, talked and took in the sights and sounds of the town. I don't know if that moment can ever be recreated. I hope so. I hope so, because it was just too fabulous to only happen once in a lifetime!

Love,
