Day 4 in New Zealand

Today (10th June 2010 - Thursday) is my 4th day in New Zealand. This morning started from Hamilton, New Zealand. Went to a customer's place and had a good fruitful discussion.

Then, we went to a nice coffee shop which also serves good food. The coffee there was really tasty and have a unique after taste, which I have never came across before this.

After lunch, the working tour continue to another different customer. This visit I think is even more fruitful than the earlier one.

Then, in the evening, we proceeded to catch a flight from Hamilton to Palmerston North. We again took a rented car and again it is the 6 speed Ford XR6.

The lady on the counter of the car rental booth is really not helpful. Our car was booked without a GPS device, and when we requested for one, she insisted that it is not possible and all sorts of reasons she gave. I think she is merely lazy to process the GPS rental and just give us all sorts of reasons. Therefore, we have no other choice but to navigate with the good old method using a road map.

We checked into the Aubyn Court Motorlodge. Its kinda cool place. Clean and neat. One thing really cool is it comes with a jacuzzi tub which is located beside the bed. With the weather so cold, I wonder who is going to use the Jacuzzi tub.

Straight after arrival, me and my boss went for Indian cuisine in the city center. We had good old chicken and mutton curry and some tandoori chicken, naan bread and white rice. It was nice and tasty.

Came back after that, but to keep updated with the work e-mail.

Tomorrow will be the last day of this 1 week New Zealand tour. Will be flying from Christchurch from Palmerston North and will fly out to Sydney on Saturday morning.

Stay tuned. More update on the way...
