We celebrated New Year's Eve at Richard Dalton's place with a BBQ. Although it is summer, it was raining cats and dogs but yet the barbie still went ahead; we do love our barbies. New Year came and went as we were kicked out of the party at 1:30am due to drunken spillage of drinks. Although funny now, the atmosphere was tense at the time.
A few days later, Mois, Gillies, Grammy and I went for a 80min drive to Lake Ferry to go camping and swimming. By camping, I meant sleeping in cabins, by swimming, I meant drinking.
All was not lost as we also went for a 3 hour walk to see the Putangirua Pinnacles. I really don't know too much about how they were formed but Wikipedia editors reckon no later than 125,000 years ago. 125,000 years ago! Thats some special number. Oh and scenes from Lord of the Rings were also filmed here.
I'm going skip a week as I'm too lazy to share. Its basically golfing in Taupo, dinner, golf, dinner golf,
The beauty of living in Suburbia is all the amazing walking tracks right on your doorstep. Of late, I've been going for bush walks in search of lookouts. This may all sound lame and boring but its actually very invigorating.
Through bush and around the hills with a sunset, gay yeh? Wrong, Amazing!
Top of the hill at 420m surrounded by boulders, girly eh? Wrong, Epic!
Into the wild and across a creek to see a waterfall, poof aye? Wrong, Brilliant!
