Aotearoa!

Arrived in Auckland yesterday morning after long but good flights first across the USA and then to NZ. Mum and Dad met me at the airport and took me to a cousins place for a shower and then straight to church. Thats when i met Johanna (my youngest niece) for the first time. Priscilla just dumped her in my arms!! A few minutes later Nikki, and Melanie were giving me hugs and then Joanna was dumping Benji(my only nephew--making him my favourite nephew!)in my arms. Had a fun day with the family--Jon and Rufus were there also. Watched the All Blacks smash France, and played Pictionary.


At Atlanta airport I looked for Richard Bransons book but they didnt have it. So I bought The DaVinci Code. I had had discussions with Kate Robinson about this book as she was reading it when I was in Canada. I can't put it down!! I'm over halfway through already. The historical details in it are very interesting and all the symbology and crptyology is fascinating. So now I know what the Holy Grail is, What the Mona Lisa means among other things. A great read for any thinking mind!! May just challenge the way you think about your faith and how/why we believe what we do. What is truth??
