Today John and I woke up to clouds and light drizzle, but there was the promise of a blue sky. Unfortunately, it turns out that this is a big weather system that is expected to hang about until Sunday and the weather is to get worse, not better. Sunday is the first day of the conference. Then, when John is at the conference the forecast is for sun and warmth.
John went for a walk and got himself a fish and chips lunch in Devonpart. He soon discovered that this is not a good place to buy food. The fish and chips cost $24... for lunch! I can only guess what the dinner fish and chips would cost.
John was making this video of the garden when Minnie, one of Cathy's cats, came along with an order from Nature's Takeout. It used to be a bird. At least Minnie ate it all.
John had hoped to climb Mount Victoria today and take some stunning video of Auckland Harbour and Rangitoto Island but the rain came down in buckets.
In the afternoon, John had a good talk with Michael, Cathy's flatmate. He has had some very interesting jobs ranging from acting to research.
We'll just have to wait to see about the weather tomorrow. John may just have to listen to his audiobook instead.
