Third Day in Auckland

Today we went to go visit Unitech. This meeting in my opinion was more geared towards our professions and interests. We met with the head of the architecture program and some of his colleagues, one of them being a man named Mark Mismash. He works for the University but he also owns his own company that does green efficient building. He believes that the leed and green star rating systems are just huge checklists and that they actually do not measure the productivity or the improvement due to design changes in terms of energy efficiency. I would love to talk more to him about these two programs since this is what my research and development project is on. After our meeting, we met with Karen about our research and development project and then we had the rest of the afternoon off. Most of us did some packing and got ready to leave after we finish class tomorrow. We are going to stay at my friend Chris's beach house in Omaha beach. We are really excited for a few days off.
