Making our way out of our traffic jam.
Our eventful day started with low ropes team building on a frosty (but sunny) 26 degree morning at the uni tennis courts. We skillfully worked our way through several challenges including detangling ourselves from a gordian knot and making our way through a traffic jam in almost record time.

In the early afternoon we took in our first lecture from Dr. Hostetler about conserving biodiversity and what matters to the different stakeholders (e.g., farmer, urbanite).

A NZ Young Farmer finalist shows his stuff as an auctioneer.
Late in the afternoon we were privy to a special opening ceremony on the Lincoln University Campus of the preliminary rounds of the NZ Young Farmer/World Young Shepard competition. We got to see how the seven finalists would do at auctioning off a cow with the best one selling his stock animal for over $20,000NZ.

Pavlova! |

Heads Up! |
After dinner we had family night at the Hostetler's flat. We made whipped cream to decorate our
pavlova dessert, sampled
L&P soda, watched an episode of the
Flight of the Conchords TV show, played charades and Heads Up. Another full day of fun in Aoteroa. Cheers, Meryl
