Repetition - Blogabond

Hmm, these blog entries are starting to get a bit repetitive. Travel somewhere, admire scenery via foot/bike/kayak, move on. I guess that's the thing with NZ - beautiful country though it is, there's not a great deal beyond that. And because I've been doing the south island on my own, I haven't got any particularly amusing anecdotes about fellow travellers either, because you only really have time to talk to people long enough to establish country of origin, time away from home, places visited/to visit, and a few other bits and pieces. Anyway, that'll all change when I meet up with KP in Wellington to tour the north island - he's always good value for a few stories.

So Picton was my last stop in the north island. Just time for a day's mountain biking on the Queen Charlotte Track before jumping on the ferry. It was great biking though, with some great single-track downhills (obviously preceded by rather unpleasant climbs).

Send a Compliment

Hi Mike, How's it going? Having fun with Keith on teh North Island?

Congrats on baby Oliver - is all well? Do the Treharnes only produce boys then? And any news on Arran? It must come out soon eh?

All good here, on 2nd day maternity leave and already not had one e-mail. Quite depressing. I've just disappeared off the face of Tragus.......still, I had fun at Brent Cross and antenatal class at hospital, how my life is changing....feel brain dead already!

What are your plans for Christmas Day? Fun and alcohol filled? Got the kids coming here this weekend followed by Mags and Ger on Xmas Eve. Did Billy last weekend.....not so much fun when not knocking back the frosty beverages, still not long to go - a maximum of 5 weeks! Could be tomorrow, who knows! Feels like he or she is about to fall out already.

Take care, Lis xx
