MW 25 Years

Normally going away for any length of time freaks me out a little you always end up working 10 times harder before and after your holiday to make up for it and I’m surgically attached to my iphone. However, when the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity came about to enjoy an extra 25 days holiday I couldn’t resist.

In the spirit of Mason Williams’s 25yr anniversary, here are 25 things I got up to during my time away:

  1. Saw in the New Year on a Fijian beach
  2. Travelled the length and breadth of New Zealand in a campervan
  3. Got a numb tongue drinking Fijian Kava
  4. Saw my first blue starfish who knew?!
  5. Climbed an active Volcano in Tongariro National Park, NZ and marveled at the sulphur pools
  6. Got engaged over a champagne picnic in Sydney’s botanical gardens (after 9yrs he needed to come up with something good!)
  7. Travelled on the famous Seaspray Schooner to Tom Hanks’s Castaway Island
  8. Drank crisp Sauvignon Blanc in Marlborough it’s the only place to do so apparently!!
  9. Shot over the Huka Falls in a Jet Boat and giggled like a schoolgirl throughout
  10. Hiked up Franz Josef Glacier and spent a day recovering
