Ok, after a week off, I'm back to school. I have to admit, traveling was so much fun that I didn't fell like I wanted to go to school to study. Even so, this was a very different day at school, with new teachers and new type of classes. In the morning I could have a kind of grammar class with Jimmy, that seems to be a very good teacher, and in the afternoon I had a conversation class, that is much better than keep sitten on a chair and listening/writing/reading some IELTS tasks. I could meet people from Mexico, Switzerland, Korea and, once again, Brazil.After class and after many cloudy week days in Auckland, today we could finally go to Sky Tower (very famous here in Auckland). The Sky Tower is a tower with about 140 meters, located in Midtown (beside Downtown) where it is possible to see everything around the city (buildings, ocean, bridges, museums, roads etc).
The sight from up there is amazing, even more there're no building higher than the tower. The elevator (or lift, like they say here) goes up so fast that it's possible to feel something uncomfortable in the ears. The elevator is panoramic, so you can see how high you're going.
The place is quite big and impressive, with a cafe and restaurant.
Michel (a friend of mine) and I took a look around town and then stoped by the cafe to have a cup of coffee (Hot Chocolate in my case). We took out laptops up there to share some pictures, once we had already been in the trip to Rotorua/Taupo/Waitomo together.
While we were seeing some pictures and 'working' we could imagine what it would be like to work in a office with this incredible view.
I must say that I really didn't want to go down the tower anymore. I could stare at the city and the ocean for hours, but unfortunately I had to come home to take care of some clothes (Mom, I miss you doing the laundry).
