A quiet week

Town has halved in population as most of the students have gone home for their Christmas vacation.  It's nice to zoom through campus on our bikes without fear of toppling someone over.  It's also nice to have Soph and Jbird as relaxed and free as me.  The Christmas rush I've always experienced in New Zealand doesn't really happen when there are only three of you.  Instead, we get to be as self-indulgent as we like.  We have a few small events planned to keep us occupied, all nice things like wrapping presents or baking or lazing around and shooting the breeze.  We've grown accustomed to being far from home, friends, and family for Christmas and barely miss it not being summer.
