Well, it is Monday the 2nd June. Today is a statutory holiday in New Zealand, the Queen's Birthday. We have a day off from work. It is not actually the Queen's Birthday today (her real birthday is 21 April), nor is THE Queen really the Queen of New Zealand, so, I don't really get it. But I get a day off from work to spend with my family so Happy Birthday!
Wikipedia says the following about the holiday: "In New Zealand, the holiday is the first Monday in June, and owing to the climate being colder than Australia's, usually serves as the opening weekend to the country's ski season."
