Kia ora
A year ago yesterday, we arrived in New Zealand for our honeymoon. We had saved up our airline points for five years in anticipation of this trip and had the immense pleasure of flying first class. One can really get used to travelling in such style.
We spent nearly four weeks in New Zealand and fell absolutely head over heels in love with the country. We have been pining to go back ever since.
If you ever get the chance to go, do it! Try to go for at least four weeks and if possible, try for six. We hope to go back in about four years.

Ah how I miss the land of hobbits, fush n chups, foreshore disputes, extreme sports and expensive breakfasts. I can’t believe a year has gone by since that trip, it feels like yesterday.
That means it’s been more than a year since I had my haircut. It’s definitely time…

ugh. I WISH I could take a 4-6 week vacation!!
I get two weeks off work per year and that includes sick
days and emergencies.
That stupid job thing always gets in the way of fun.

Dawn - I agree, jobs are just rude things that get in the way of what life’s really all about.

S’funny…I’d thought you two had been married a lot longer than that.
New Zealand looks amazing. Wet, but amazing.

Don’t worry, it’s still the same here. I’ll keep an eye on things for you.
