... opened and heavy rain stopped us in our tracks. And it would not stop, so we ended up flying the white flag and cycled the 5km back to Napier in pouring rain. We were drenched by the time we got back and very sober, so hot showers and hot chocolate in front of the box was the only thing to do. And that seemed to be that day. Very relaxing but rather wet!

... But the lessons of experience are hidden. Learn from it to see the world more clearly. From the above extract, I think that will be the purpose of my travel. To extract the experiences from the world out there and improve my clarity of life and myself. Like going for a Lasik.........

One was a bachelor who made varied and beautiful patchwork quilts and the other a widow who collected stamps and then collaged them into banners of local and international pictures. I might take up quilting when I get home...

... journey up, and we were in good time for lunch at the Clearview Winery. We ate in the garden and enjoyed an excellent meal. I had grouper, which is called groper in New Zealand. In the afternoon we walked along the Marine Parade and later had dinner in a Thai restaurant.

Tuesday was a travel day to Napier. The weather was very overcast with strong winds, making for very rough seas. The captain announced that the winds were gusting up to 40 knots giving waves from 2 to 4 meters. It made for some unsteady walking but no sea sickness for me or Andy. But we had a busy day, none the less. After having Belgian waffles and bacon for breakfast, we attended a social gathering. CruiseCritic Connections - the website and ...

... supposed to take, and ended up on a trail heading for he summit again, which we brazenly abandoned for the road which we could pick out at the top of a steep grassy slope. No swearing, but my tired legs were very upset with Amanda, or as I have come to call her lately, The Great Navigator.
