Back on the bus. But before arriving at the PDC, a message was received that the flight was canceled. We were returned to the plane to get our carry on items from the plane. The first flight cancellation on Thursday allowed Randy and I to tour parts of the south island of New Zealand with Bob Loewenstein, senior research assistant at the University of Chicago, and Bob's friend, Dennis Langton. Dennis is a youth counselor in Christchurch.
South Island is beautiful.
Some of the roads cut through flat pasture lands, while others wind around mountain sides with the ocean on one side and hills dotted with sheep on the other side. After dark, Bob pointed out that the moon not only was upside down, but backwards. The man in the moon was upside down and the lighted part of the moon was on our left hand side. Check out the moon yourself. It should be waxing, meaning that it is getting larger each night.
