While visiting Windsor Castle with Anna on Monday I received word that Nivi and Matt were planning on coming to Oxford on Tuesday. This was cool, three kiwis to stay! I thought it may be worth a try to ask my boss if I could work at home and have the afternoon off work so that I could spend some time with them, he promptly said that I could have the day off! He's a cool boss like that. So while I caught up with emails and the last of my stage 2 HK homework, Anna planned some of her trip to France. Matt and Nivi arrived on the Oxford Tube and we took them on a tour of Oxford. Anna and I having only just done the walking tour could easily rattle off some facts and act like we knew what we were talking about.
That evening we had a picnic in University Parks (were I will also be doing my run). It was a little bizarre having three lovely kiwis in Oxford which has been relatively kiwi free for a while. Some say I was drunk, but I disagree. It was a little funny as Anna knocked her red wine over and I thought and was just about to say "pour some white wine on" when I knocked my white wine directly on the stain. Lots of laughter followed that one.
Anna and Nivi - Summer is on the way!

The Moon!
Now our house is empty, our friends have gone, to far reaches and further adventures. And now Peter and I are back to planning our next adventure and eventual home coming...

ha ha - that bottle of wine in the photo of Peter looks like it is miniature! Either that or Peter's head looks huge! :-)
Weird! You might as well be in NZ!
... Except for all the cool buildings around, and the mole hills next to us :-)
