Well its another rainy day in NZ, a bit humid, but not exactly what you would call hot,but we have a slight sub-tropical feeling in the air, Jan and Feb are usually the hottest months in NZ, the forecast is for you guessed it more rain, one good side to it all the farmers down south are saving at least 10,000 dollars a month in irrigation, few years back they were fighting fires and droughts, I guess we humans are never happy, but yes it would be nice to see a little bit of summer in NZ for a change, our tourists are packing their bags and leaving, and not many people are attending our swimming venues,not good for their business.

My family are off to the beach this weekend, and its going to rain, rain, and rain, GRRR....ah well lets be thankful, at least we are not facing what the poor people are with the distastrous tsunami.
