Sky Tower

No pictures of this one, but definitely the thing to do in Auckland. We went to lunch at the sky tower, and it is a rotating restaurant in the center of the city. It is really cool! It takes an hour to go one rotation. Very neat, good food, and awesome views :)
Brandon is in his third week of movember. The mustache is getting pretty long now. He has raised more than anyone else on his team... great cause, too. Thanks to everyone for helping him do that!
The santa downtown was reviled yesterday. They created a giant santa and reindeer downtown. They had made him and supposedly his face was too creepy, so they remade him and now he is back to his jolly old self.
This week we are having some people over for thanksgiving. We had to find the ingredients for the basics. The hardest to find was the marshmallows for the candied yams (we bought kumara for the yams). I am also frying the onions for the green bean casserole myself. I will try and get pictures of the food! Wish me luck.. first time cooking thanksgiving dinner!!!
