We're traveling in New Zealand right now. It's an amazing country and the people here are very friendly. The internet access however is not great so this will only be a short post.
We arrived in Auckland last week and are currently in Rotorua, which is basically a town built in a geothermal field so there are geysers and mineral bathes around. A couple of days ago we went to something called a glow-worm cave. It was amazing! There were thousands of glow-worms on the ceiling that gave enough light to see everyone in the cave. The cave had a river in it so we floated around on a raft in there for about 45 minutes. AMAZING!
The tour was run by a small company called Spellbound and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who gets a chance to visit this country.
More posts next time I can connect to the net!

That's cool! I love the glowworms... but did they tell you what glowworms actually are???? hehehe. If you have time, go to hotwater beach and dig yourself a hottub! And don't pass up any opportunities (like surfing) just because it's "too cold", though working in Iqaluit should mean cold won't scare you.
Ha -- I saw the picture and assumed it was the northern lights - didn't think it was the right time of the year but I've never lived that far north. The glow worms look a lot like the northern lights when they grow across the sky like crystals. Looks fantastic - enjoy the vacation!
