Default I has arrived!!!

It has been 24hrs already since I touched down in Auckland (7:30 am on 13th June!)...

WOW WOW WOW!!! It really only did hit me once the plane touched down in Auckland not before... LOL One would think that we over 24hrs travel it would have hit me before?? Or when I kissed goodbye to OH??

Did a bit of walking around yesterday, enjoyed the lovely sun! Went into a few shops... Well it is a bit different eh??

Another day of relaxing before work tomorrow.... BRING IT ON!!!

Congratulations! For me it's been a month and I still find myself walking down the street thinking "Wow, here I am, it really happened, aren't the people friendly and helpful" or "Fantastic blue sky, 14 degrees - is this really winter?" I have no regrets at all about leaving the UK - this place feels so welcoming.

So pleased you are finally there - you can actually start living the dream now and watch on as the rest of us take on NZIS!

Me thinks you have a bit of a fan club going on here, LOL.

Good luck with everything, LB

Welcome, great to hear you've arrived safely, and that first impressions are positive.
Good luck with the job & settling in, and I hope that the separation from the family isn't for too long.
