SoPac:
The students have arrived to beautiful Kaikoura! The Old Convent is now home to twenty new, excited students and we have been busy the past week getting to know each other, getting to know the place, and enjoying ourselves. Some of the recent highlights have been:
1. A visit to Kevin and Sandy Topp's farm--a stunning three thousand acre property where sheep and cattle graze as far as the eye can see.
2. A hangi (traditional Maori earth oven) at the Convent where 80+ friends from the community came and shared in a delicious meal.
3. A Kaikoura photo scavenger hunt!
Here are some shots from the scavenger hunt:
Kaitlyn (Wheaton College), Sophie (Westmont), and Monique (Point Loma) look into another way to see the Kaikoura landscape.
Tamara (Westmont) and Shanae (Westmont) barely escape the jaws of the whale.
The view from town. Does it get much better than this?
All our love to our friends and family back home! We think this is going to be a pretty great semester.
