Konnichiwa, how are you going?

Great to see the picture of you guys winning the newspaper competition. It is good to see that it only took us two turns to be in the money.

Today is my first day of work and I am looking up informaton about Auckland and cannot find anything. If you have any good websites I would love ot visit them. I have been looking for two hours now. I need to prepare a 20 minute speech and I would like to include some facts etc.

Work is great - I did not have to teach today but I made two speeches in Japanese. I also gave out my omiyage to my supervisor and to my deputy and principal. Omiyage are gifts to people higher than you if you are new to the school. It would be great to have in NZ.

................

Anyway I teach my first classes tomorrow, can't wait to actually do some real work. If you can help me out with that information it would be great.

Mrs Luke.
