I have been here living in Island Bay, Wellington (from Seattle) for close to 3 weeks now. I live in a nice home on the ocean, ride a 50cc scooter 6km to a great job in Wellington's CBD. Thank you to everyone who kept pushing me to get here. It's hard road of frustration dealing with all these immigration road blocks. I think this forum is great as well as the people here.
I wanted to post some photos I took from LAX as I waited for my one-way flight to Auckland last month, one of AKL and of my bike on the coast near Wellington.
To those who are still working on your immigration red tape items and such, keep pushing as it's worth it in the end. Sooner, NOT later, you'll be seeing your own 747 rolling up to the gate to whisk you away to New Zealand... It's a great feeling to see the airplane that will deliver you to your future! It's the best surreal feeling you will ever imagine. Keep pushing and have patience as soon you will board your 747 too.. :nice1
Thanks again everyone for the wonderful support system that you keep going here... and I hope these photos inspire you.

PS. I just submitted my PR application (let the fun begin!!!)
