Visit to coal museum

I probably have already included this photo in previous posts. This is bigger than the previous one, I think. I saw on the news that there was flood in the West Coast region days after I arrived back in Christchurch. I was glad that my fellow coursemates and I don't have to battle the flood during our field trip. We only had to brace ourselves for the 'hard' splitting rain that comes once in a while.

Now the view below really take your breath off, right? It is really pretty and some people may find it worthwhile to hike and see these beautiful sceneries. For me, I would prefer to go in the car along the road and watch the views. I guess it really depends on people's personalities.

Below photos were taken at the Coal Museum in Westport. It was part of our course as we had to write discussion for one of our report.

I was told that the geol 200 level field trips has 3 streams. There were 2 streams in my year. That means, there are more people studying geology. They are all wanting to become geologists. Oh no.. that means the chance of getting a geology job is slim. Not forgetting it's the recession time so the chances are even more slimmer.

Side note: check out the diet supplements.
