Valentines Day!

Happy Valentines Day! Down here in New Zealand it's still a pretty big event, but there isn't nearly as much marketing surrounding it or as much candy in the stores to be sold. None the less, the restaurants were packed and the florists were very busy charging very high prices for roses. Erin and I went out to have some "Fresh Asian" food at a new restaurant called Chow. It was great!

In addition to that our night was spent cleaning and doing laundry to prepare for the arrival of Mom and Dad Ciaccia tomorrow. They are enjoying their last night with their tour group in Queenstown and have a flight up here to Auckland tomorrow afternoon. We are looking forward to their arrival and have a great dinner with a bunch of friends planned for tomorrow night at a restaurant called Pontoon.
