We're at the Auckland Airport waiting for the flight home that I'd be more than happy to miss...of course, we're 9 zillion hours too early for the flight because of the way the bike storage was set up (see last post under moronic Tour guy for the reason...). Augh. We found out yesterday that we'd need to pick up our bikes at "airport freight" today by 5:00 when it closes...our flight is at 11 p.m. Yeah, convenient. Nobody told us that we'd have to hoof it from the terminal a good distance (let's say about a half mile) in the RAIN with all our other crap (which got soaked) to even FIND the air freight place...augh...I was so pissed. However, the stressful, angry hour didn't wreck another fabulous day in paradise...it did rain this morning, but most of the day was great. We had a nice day of sightseeing and last minute support of the local economy before we had to go on the bike box hunt.
We had the last 3 nights in a wonderful B&B hosted by 2 charming women who've been together for 22 years...gorgeous house and great energy. Anyway...it's been an amazing fun trip and Seujan has had to (very nicely) deal with me getting increasingly more depressed over the last day as I know we have to go home...I'm not ready yet!!!
We'll come back to New Zealand...and hopefully, I won't be too much of a behaviour problem on the LONG dreadful flight home.
I hate it when vacation is over and the chacos and cargo shorts go back into the closet :(
