Dad drove us to Te Kuiti through High Way 30 yesterday. We have never been on High Way 30 before, and the scenery was quite spectacular. We passed a small water fall between rocks on a farm. The land was littered with rocks and you couldn't tell whether they were sheep or rocks. We saw a car rally in progress, although we didn't see the actual race, we saw the mechanics repairing the car. We went on to Taupo for dinner and it didn't rain all day. The petrol price is down 3 cents ($1.66/litre).
This holiday we can watch the soccer world cup, Ghengis Khan (DVD), and rent DVDs from the shop. I also keep up my daily walk when weather permits me. Up until now, I have watched The Constant Gardener, Pride and Prejudice (the new one with Keira Knightly), and The Queen Sheba's Pearls. The Queen Sheba's Pearls was a really good film talking about love during and after the second world war. The Constant Gardener is a little bit more contemparary, about pharmaceutical company trialing drugs in Africa and covering up deaths under the guise of AIDS. This reminds me of the recent story from the U.K. about trialing new drugs on humans and they died of multiple organs failure.
Today I watched The Sky Captain and The World of Tomorrow. Quite entertaining.
I am also doing a questionarre from a potential employer. Wish myself luck for this employment opportunity. I am trying very hard to answer some difficult questions.
