Back.

Back in country. Have 872 unread emails (after deleting obvious spam), will get through these slowly over the week. Probably won't even attempt to catch up on LJ, sorry.

Predictably, all three of my flights over the pass week were delayed. Sometimes I don't even know why I bother turning up to the airport on time! :/

Holiday itself was great. NZ is very pretty, and has a staggering number of snow-capped mountains and waterfalls. More on that later though - I'm tired and jetlagged and want to sleep.

Regarding your comment of wondering why you're turning up to delayed flights on time, I've always found airports quite anal about sticking to the latest possible check-in time.

I remember rocking up for a flight late a few years back - 10 mins before it was meant to take off - I noticed the flight was delayed a hour though. I was told I couldn't catch it and I had to rebook a later flight. This was without even needing to check-in luggage.

Welcome back!

Love to see any other photos of our ride you've got (aside from those few on FB). I might be able available for another ride this weekend... I've pretty much only commuted since, and its frustratingly short or too built up traffic to enjoy the journey much!

Clocked up 220km and the fuel metre finally got past half way :~D possible I could even get 400km (with reserve) out of her.
