Since the Vipassana course ended, I've been hanging out in Christchurch with some fellow meditators. Sue from Waiheke (picture eventually, once I find some broadband) served the course, as well as two Americans, Phil and Laura from St. Louis. Gosh were we ever lucky- both of them are cooks by trade! Thus, they added their own little bits here and there to the course menu, and we were definitely looking forward to every meal (as if Vipassana students don't already do that!).
I've got tickets to see the Dalai Lama speak in Nelson on the 29th. Between now and then a few of us are hitting Star Wars II tonight, then Danielle (a South African lady from the Vipassana course) and I are heading to the West Coast to visit a few of the other meditators from the course. Then it'll be on to Nelson. As I recall, there's broadband there... Mmm... That means you'll probably get to see the last month and a half's batch of pictures (finally!).
