Day Two in Wellington, NZ

Today we got up and ate ham and cheese foccacia with plain yogurt (poured out of a carton) with apple cut up in it. That was breakfast.

We got ready for the day and met our ride from Weta whose name escapes me. Garrett says he is too rough and manly to be gay :) He had quite the hangover from the WORK Christmas party on Sat. and from partying the rest of the weekend. The only time he got prickly was when the kids got crazy and Ethne started screaming about not getting to throw around the ipad and he came to my rescue. I think the noise was hurting his head. He is Kind and polite though. Very helpful to me with the kids while G is busy with things.
He is also Garrett's driving instructor today.

We went to the bank first and opened our accounts. 3-checking, savings, and GST for the 15% we get from Weta to pay to the NZ government for working here.

Next we went to Weta where G got all his tax info. and I played outside with the kids after what's his name helped me to take them all outside after the before mentioned incident.

Then we went to lunch with Jenny (our Weta housing specialist)at the Weta cafe/restaurant where we ate a white fish with asparagus and Cherry tomatoes on polenta with a touch of balsamic vinegar and something else... nope can't remember what it was.
The boys had amazingly good pizza with salad and Ethne ate a NZ famous mince pie that would have been my first choice if I could afford those calories :) Jenny ordered a bowl of fries for the kids and the boys all had blood orange soda.

After that we went back to the part of Weta we started at in the morning and we met up with whats his name again. He taught us a few things about driving there and Garrett drove us to our hotel. He was going to drive back with (what's his name)then drive back here to the hotel by himself BUT I have yet to see him yet so I hope he is safe.

K, so Garrett did eventually get home but his instructor had him do something a little out of the ordinary. He had Garrett drive him to the airport and then sent Garrett to find his way home from there. Garrett accidentally ended up on the expressway and had quite the time finding his way back to the hotel. Pretty sure what's his name wasn't supposed to have him do that.

So for the rest of the day I cleaned up the hotel and unpacked and made order out of chaos while Garrett took Enoch and Ezra on a jaunt around town looking for cell phones. We had sandwiches of ham, cheese, tomato, avocado and hummus for dinner and put the kids to bed.

I went over the cell phone plans G brought back and he went through all the paperwork he got at work that day. Then we hit the sack at about 10pm.
