Wanderings 1

Stage 1 of our plan to rule the world is nearly over. We've just spent four days with Rory's mum soaking up the hottest spring sun I can ever remember. We toured the wineries and stocked up her wine supplies and sampled the food and wine at quite a few cafes and restaurants; quail stuffed with crayfish is now my dream-food!

We fly to Auckland in a couple of hours to catch a direct flight to London. 25 hours in a fucking plane is more than I really want to cope with so we're travelling business class - at least we can be comfortable! We're globe-trotting back home later so that'll be economy.

Can't wait to see grubby ol' London again!

  1. Great to hear from you! I don't think I could handle 25 hours on a plane without being medicated.
    Good luck and have fun.

  2. You hate to spend 25 hours on a plane to London so you are taking business class? Honey, hate to be the one to tell you, but it'll still be 25 hours. Could not resist that. But maybe you will get off the plane a few minutes sooner up there. Wish it were me going back to London.
