First post!

So this is my blog. I haven't kept one of these in a long time, but I'll do my best to make it as awesomely entertaining as possible. It's primarily here as an easy way to catalogue my adventures in New Zealand... and beyond!

For the technologically-impaired (you know who you are) who may find this whole thing a bit bewildering, it's really quite simple: whenever you want to see what I'm up to, just type in the address http://theeoinzone.blogspot.com/ and you'll be brought to this page. Also, you'll notice a comment link at the bottom of each entry. That's there so you can comment and let me know how awesome my blog is. Comments are public, though, so please refrain from any mushy gushy messages like, "Oh, Eoin, my favorite son/brother/uncle/cousin/friend/mentor/your majesty, I miss you so so so much :(" Thanks in advance.

Lastly, the little link at the bottom of the sidebar to the right that says "New Zealand Adventures" will take you to Alexa's blog. Although she'll be doing a lot of the same things as me, making her blog a duller, less eloquent version of mine, I'm sure a few of her entries will be worth reading.

So that's about it. I'll try to update at least once a week. But reader beware: just because I'll be in New Zealand doesn't mean every day will be jam-packed with excitement, so some entries might be like, "This week I went to work every day. I just ate a muffin," but that's a chance you'll just have to take.

I leave September 1st. Check back soon!

loqucgEoin,
Pain in the butt setting this up. Aunt Sallee and I look forward to reading about your adventures in sheepland with Alexa. We'll read her comments and determine whose are best. Good for you guys for venturing out in the world while you can.

Love you (oops mushy)
Uncle Mike

I'm especially excited for the "I just ate a muffin" posts.

I'm looking forward to the "muffin blog" too. Do you think they have kiwi muffins? On second thought, Alexa might not want you to touch those. I also want to see lots of sheep pictures, like the Irish sheep in the phone booth.

Hi Eoin and Alexa,

I've been enjoying the blogs and following you on your travels. Your photos are impressive, especially the chickens. I've been sharing with Steven so perhaps you'll get a comment from him one of these days.

Keep the commentary coming. No comments on food? What's it like?

Luv U,
Aunt Lola

Sometimes it doesn't seem like you and Alexa are at the same place. I like Dominos pizza, maybe you can deliver here.
