These are stories of my travels – or stories of while I am travelling.
The last couple of weeks have been amazing here in Queenstown. Blue sky, no wind and today is supposed to get to 24C (about 80F ) even though it did get to -2C overnight (28F).
Yesterday I went for a hike walk around the lake and there were boats out on the lake and even some folks water skiing. At the end of my walk I was hot and would have loved a swim but the water is super super cold!!! I’m told it is like that all summer as well – even in the middle of summer people will water ski in a dry suit.
Now that the mountain has closed I think I should move on.
The obvious choice is the north coast of Sydney, where I was before I came over here. I have a great bunch of friends there, the beach is fantastic, it isn’t too expensive to rent within walking distance of the beach (or maybe even on the beach). But I was wondering if you guys have any suggestions?
I hear South America is much more speedo friendly or maybe even somewhere in the Carribean. I’m pretty open to suggestions as long as it has a decent internet connection and the more speedo friendly the better. If there is a surf break that is nice but not the be all and end all.
I wish I had someone to play ‘speedo grab arse’ with…..
It is a gorgeous day here in Queenstown and I’m going to go for a hike – I’ll take my camera and get some pics for you guys.
On Saturday morning, in my usual hungover, horny state I updated my online dating profile to see if I could take advantage of some of the boys in town for Gay Ski Week.
This morning I’m up early for a swim and I’ve had no response to my profile at all!!!!
Turns out I didn’t add any of the photos and didn’t ‘save’ the new blurb about me. Aggghhhhhh.
It has since been updated and I’ll be sure to keep you guys posted on what I get up to.
Here are some more photos from the Christchurch Earthquake. I have been hearing now first hand just how devestated the CBD district is. University was supposed to go back this week but has been put back at least a week, the CBD is under a sunset to sunrise curfew and ALL Christchurch government offices are closed.
Someone told me this quake was worse than the Haiti quake – I didn’t believe that so I checked it out. The Haiti quake was 7.0, 25km’s from Port-au Prince and 13kms deep. The Christchurch quake was 7.1, 40kms from the CBD but only 10kms deep (the closer to the surface the worse it is from what I understand). Just goes to show how lucky we are to live in a 1st world country that nobody died (230,000 died in Haiti) and although there is destruction and it will take time to rebuild, life goes on.
