Straight Shippin'... Out.

Jesse and I are headed to the airport today. Why? We want to go to Christchurch and see The Miller. We're getting on the next possible flight, probably heading down around 10:00am or so (within the hour. We've got to pack yet...). We're planning on chilling in Christchurch for a few days before trekking our way back to the north island, and back to Auckland where I will hopefully catch a plane going to LAX.

Nothing of interest yet. We've been exploring the city (it only took 100 dollars in cab rides to do so, too...) and we went to the zoo, so that was fun. We also saw Iron Man after a good hike down (and back up) the lengthy Queens st, which was awesome in every way. We've barely done any tourist-y shenanigans, and Gamble and I have each passed out before 8pm two nights in a row. We have a fridge full of beer that will either remain there, or will need to be drunk in the next 45 minutes. There are 20 of them.

I think we'll stick to the cheap food and grocery stores from now on. We saved ourselves from ordering a 40 dollar double pizza meal (!) by purchasing an exorbitant amount of McDonald's sandwiches. I won't say how many, but it cost us 12 dollars to OVERFILL us. It's shameful, but delicious.

Anyway, we'll hit the Internet when we get to Christlandchurchville in the next 12 hours or so -- providing we can actually get on a plane.

Peace.
