Eels!
Just a quick note while I have internet access (still very rare for me). Typing really aggravates my neck, so that's another reason to keep this short.
We went to Willowbank Nature Park on the weekend, with our friends Etienne and Priscilla (and their boy Ludovic). They have long-finned eels there, in a pond, and they're very accustomed to being fed. You can just stand on the bank, and there's a dozen huge (meter long? Maybe longer?) eels in the water, trying to come out and sample what you've got on offer. VERY COOL. Aya and I loved them.
My neck is still injured.
Its very warm here today - very nice!
Shelley is learning R. She resents having to write computer code.
I applied on a job at Thompson Rivers University today. A faculty job in Ecology. Bit of a long shot, as hundreds of people will apply on it.
We are still enjoying living in Christchurch. A lot. I got to see a Weka, and a Kea.
More later!
