Getting ready to go a road trip with the family across the USA next weekend. The good thing about all the long distance travelling is that I have almost accumulated enough Airpoints to take the family to the Pacific Islands, maybe next Easter. Which is just as well, as I have used up all my leave! The holiday season in NZ is Decmber and January, so work is often quite a bit quieter. Far from being refreshed and reinvigorated, I am now completely exhausted!
Over the past 3 months I have been on a 5 week road trip from LA to NY with my family, then on a 3 week trip to Europe with my two oldest children, visiting Ireland, Scotland, and France. This is good for me , who is allergic to both cats and house dust mite. The only downside was that it was pouring on the morning that I had to take the tent down… I love being able to hear the weather around me and in addition, there are a lot less allergens in a tent than in a house. Luxury camping! This sounds a bit mad, but I actually prefer sleeping in a tent as opposed to sleeping in a house, as long as I have a mattress to lie on (not a big fan of airbeds). We have just returned from Hawkes Bay, where we camped for 3 nights in our friends back garden in Taradale. Brain exercise, social interaction, and time away from smartphones… As far as the children are concerned I can’t think of a better pastime. I used to play at a reasonably high level when I was younger, and look forward to getting back to that level when I am older and have more time.

I have been teaching my children how to play chess. Never underestimate the power of a marathon to test you to the limit of your physical and mental capacity. Turned into an exercise in survival towards the end. Was hampered by quite severe stomach cramps and nausea in the second half of the race. Ran my first marathon (Kirikiriroa) in a couple of years last weekend. stayed in an AirBnB close to the centre, and went to a few museums. Still some remnants of the Iron Curtain, but I suspect it is becoming more metropolitan with each apssing decade. Interesting city, a clash of East and West. Took the train to Budapest for a couple of days after the conference, because I had never been to Hungary. Vienna modern, clean and with great public transport. Enjoyed New Caledonia, would go back in the future and explore more of the island.
Spoke lots of French to the locals and becoming much more confident now in everyday conversation. Spent a couple of days on Duck Island doing lots of snorkelling. Took the bus everywhere, including the beaches. Stayed in hotel in the town centre of Noumea, in a non-tourist area. Flights paid for with saved up Airpoints. My older daughter, Jahna, was delighted! She is feeding well and keeping us up all night! She does open her eyes, but not for the camera!įamily holiday in New Caledonia, an island in the South Pacific north of NZ.
