First Day In New Zealand (Feb 23rd)
I actually lived this day thinking it was Friday, only to have an entire day of my life removed that evening.
Got to the hotel at 8:30am. I'd been up for 38 hours with only a couple of dozes. Surprisingly, I felt okay. Room not going to be ready until 10:30, so went for a cup of tea and an Afghan cookie (very chocolatey, very nice, but lacking in that explosive element).
As I'd been sat down for most of the previous day and a half, I thought a good long walk in search of an internet cafe would be in order. Also, a nice long walk down a hill would be good... not really thinking about the walk back! Now my feet hurt.
The hotel is in the middle of nowhere, well outside the city centre and on the top of a hill.
Checked into the hotel and had a chat with one of the company owners about what to expect. All good stuff ... and I pick the bike up tomorrow.
