Last but not least , one day in November we set the alarm for 4AM and sat outside for an hour to watch the meteor shower , an exciting display of shooting stars - - did you see it ? In September we house-sat for several weeks at Tammy and Danny 's home while they went to China for an adventure . Pam and Ian watched the Whitbread yachts leave Auckland on the next leg of their long journey round the world , they were awesome . On a visit to Christchurch in September he played a couple of gigs in a group down there . Her big trip was going to be a long weekend in Opotoki ( and you ca n't get less exotic than that ) with a friend in September , but this got cancelled because of widespread flooding and road closures . Pam wrote much of what follows last November , but we lost momentum in the final weeks at Calgary and our relocation back to New Zealand . It is very exotic , surrounded by dense vegetation and the liquid sound of countless birds , who seemed completely unafraid of people . The staff ensemble has proudly played at school assemblies , the teachers learning first-hand , and with some surprise , how terrifying public performance is-which heightens their appreciation of the children 's achievements . In November she spent a week at Leadership Camp , taking part in some exciting activities - - falling out of a whitewater raft and being pulled down rapids underneath it , enthusiastically playing the Ultimate Game , a team-based war game with guns and paint bullets in which you try to capture the other team 's flag , and listening to some interesting lectures about leadership and leadership styles . Ian visited Christchurch on business for a week in early September , and spent quite a bit of time with Anna . Recently , in November , she came back home for a couple of weeks ' holiday after the university year had ended , and was unexpectedly able to get a transfer to the Hamilton branch of the retail outlet in which she works . Well , Nikki was finishing her last year at high school , with final exams in November .
