Southern Girl on the South Island: February 2012
http://southerngirlonthesouthisland.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Southern Girl on the South Island. Wednesday, February 22, 2012. A time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to build. But in all seriousness, in the short time that I have been here I have seen how heavy 12:51 PM on February 22, 2011 weighs on the hearts and minds of the people of Christchurch.

Southern Girl on the South Island. Sunday, July 22, 2012. 8230;And she’s here! From Atlanta to LAX and from LAX to Auckland The Adventures of Tin Tin, Rio, Warrior,. Best Day. Ever. There is an Indian, Thai, Japanese, and Chinese restaurant on every block. There’s no such thing as Kroger or Walmart. but there are McDonald’s (Macca's) and Subway. Sadly, the $5 dollar footlong is a figment of the American imagination. SUVs are a rare sight and most cars have two doors. Vocabulary of the week:.

Southern Girl on the South Island: May 2012
http://southerngirlonthesouthisland.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Southern Girl on the South Island. Thursday, May 17, 2012. Made a brief visit to Dunedin this weekend. I was a little apprehensive about the trip since my friends’ university had set them up with a Maori-immersion adventure on Saturday, and I was going to be left to my own devices for a day and a night. To his credit, he did take care of my jacket when we went downtown to the bars and he walked me home, insisting that he walk on the street side of the sidewalk. Well played, sir, well played. I got some f...

http://southerngirlonthesouthisland.blogspot.com/2012/04/part-deux-queenstown-and-bound.html
Southern Girl on the South Island. Sunday, April 22, 2012. Part Deux: Queenstown and Bound. After a few days of much needed rest back in Christchurch, we resume our tale in Queenstown, the adventure capital of the world. A NZ soft drink. To by a small brick of the red velvet. I’m not even a big fudge fan, but my purchase was consumed before sunrise. Our dear friend the Kea Parrot. After a long, long day, there was nothing left to do but relax. WRONG! Wednesday morning meant bungy jumping! 8221;, and I sw...

Southern Girl on the South Island: Pause. Touch. Engage.
http://southerngirlonthesouthisland.blogspot.com/2012/06/pause-touch-engage.html
Southern Girl on the South Island. Wednesday, June 20, 2012. Pause Touch. Engage. After lots of fingers crossed, prayer, and perfect execution on the part of my friend Carolyn, we got tickets to the second test match of the All Blacks series against Ireland. For those of you unfamiliar with the rugby world, getting to see the All Blacks is equivalent to watching Brazil or Spain play in soccer. The haka is a traditional Maori war dance that the All Blacks have adopted as part of their pre-game intimidation.
