Destination New Zealand
There should be another entry or two about my
Sydney adventure heading your way, but first I am going to take a week off to go over to New Zealand with The German. We are flying into Christchurch where he has to take some English test for his residency and then we are going to embark on an epic road trip around the South Island where I will have a pad and pen to take notes on whatever adventure may occur.
I’m writing this on a plane going from Brisbane to Melbourne and there is a kid behind me that has been screaming in a high pitch since before we took off and needless to say I’m not the only one losing their mind. Flying sucks. If we still lived in the days of taking giant ships on romantic voyages around the world or fancy cabined trains I wouldn’t have to deal with this kid right now. Woman and children first? Not this time. No sir. (Or mam I’m sorry that was very sexist of me)
So it’s off to New Zealand where I am going to attempt to cast the ring into the fiery pits of Mordor. My name in Elvish is Lenwë Míriel and is probably what everyone will call me there. I’ve attached below a map of New Zealand for you to follow my travels. Will we have epic battles with Orcs? Will we ride with the brave horseman of Rohan? Will we be blessed with a gift of mithril they found in Khazad-dûm or an elixir of light from beautiful Elven maidens? I cannot say, but can only hope. ONLY COPE is more like it. This kid behind me won’t shut up!
