Trampe le Monde









Hello from chilly nilly Parnell! Coldest days of the year here in Auckland yesterday and today. 43 degrees I think is the high today. Sounds like an Atlanta winter eh? Good on ya.
Paul and I had a great weekend! We caught up on True Blood Season 3 (not up to par if you ask us), did some clothes shopping for Pauly with a hilariously playful salesman, signed up for DSL finally (which means Skype is close on the horizon) and took a trip to the Coromandel Range on Sunday for a hike around Karangahake Gorge. We ended up climbing a mountain actually! The views and scenery were worth the stiff hips and sore calves. The last part of our walk was through the mountain via a 1 kilometer long tunnel. Yes dark damp and FREAKY! It is Paul's mission in life to scare the you know what out of me every chance he gets too. I'm convinced now. Something about a ghost train and conductor named Stevie McNichols who haunts the tunnel ... so original yet I still held on for dear life snapping my head back every few minutes assuming ole Stevie would be close behind.

It is important to savor, celebrate and honor the past, to save, hope and dream for the future but never miss the space in your moment. ~ Juicy
Kthx

  1. I love the pictures. What a beautiful country. I agree that you should see all of it that you can while you are there. You are getting great with the blogging. Maybe you should write a travel book.
