More links

I've added a link to my future employer's website. NIWA is the National Institute of Water and Atmospherics, and I will be working with the Catchment Processes and Water Resources group. I will be doing software for them, everything from database
front ends to data integration, to web data publishing. It sounds very interesting and challenging and I am very excited.
We were not expecting for me to get such a great job so fast, hence our scrambling now. We plan to fly out Feb 12 and
catch our breath and have a bit of a honeymoon on Rarotonga (Cook Islands), before we hit Chch and have to scramble to
get settled in. I am supposed to start at my new job on March 13!.
I had to also add a link to the Chch caving group, of course! I've met some of the cavers last year when I visited Chch for the
first time, and it'll be nice to know we will have some friendly contacts when we get there. - Gaby

So much to do, so little time

As the time for our departure nears, there seems to be so much to do...Eventually all the pieces of the puzzle will come together. If I was not organized before, I will be very organized by the time we leave Southern California. We are currently sorting through our belongings to determine which items to take and which to leave behind - it's a kind of cleansing of the soul. - Steven
