Posting from New Zealand
I'm currently posting from a cybercafe in Auckland, New Zealand. It charges NZ$2 per hour and the internet speed is as fast as my Singapore broadband speed.
My comments of New Zealand? It's a very scenic country with a high cost of living. Food costs more than NZ$8 which converts to about S$10. I ate a plate of fish & chips and it cost me NZ$8. Chinese food is so much more expensive than in Singapore. One bowl of noodles costs NZ$8-NZ$10. My family and I normally eat ala-carte in restaurants or in fast-food restaurants like KFC, McDonalds and Burger King.
My digital camera's 256MB SD Card is almost full with about 30 or so more shots left to take. I'll sort out the pictures after I reach home and will post it here in my blog to show everyone the beautiful scenery and exotic culture of New Zealand.
Another thing to note is that the Kiwis (New Zealanders) are very friendly. You walk into any store or shop, the cashier or stallholder will greet you with a wide smile.
In Singapore, you'll not get any greetings and may even receive rude treatment. Singapore still has a long way to go in terms of social interaction or whatever you call it.
I'll end my post now. I'd be returning soon, till then, good day everyone! :)
