Um.... new zealand.... in bits.........
Why is it that Game Rangers are always so gorgeous? It must have something to do with the wild and rugged terrain they work in. A loud thumping on the car broke into my dreams and continued as I tried to force it away. Let`s face it none of us look our best first thing in the morning. All the dust of the park had played havoc with my allergies so my eyes were mere slits and I had a nose that would have put Rudolf's to shame. My hair was a Medusa`s of writhing, snaking curls and I wrenched back the curtain with probably more force than was necessary. Standing mere inches away was man.... this Adonis clad in his sexy grey uniform and looking all.... manly with the rugged mountains in the background just to prove the point!
Clera the throat. Try and tame the wild hair. OPEN THE EYES. And in a lady-like manner open the sliding door.
"Morning! Do you have a permit?"
Now at this point you try and talk without actually breathing because all previous things can be overlooked... except EARLY MORNING BAD BREATH!!!!!!!
'Um Yes! It must have fallen off the dashboard as we had the windows open all night."
Now you try and untangle yourself from the ocean of blankets that are keeping you captive without sticking your behind in said Game Rangers face. At the same time you try to keep your very sexy EYORE pyjamas a secret in the whole process. It was a great start to the day.
Now you line up outside the communal wash rooms which is basically a shed in the middle of nowhere - and we all have a BRUSH BRUSH BRUSH of the teeth. Everyone is standing pretending to look at the beautiful scenery but really we are thinking.... please someone go first. We all have the same wash basin to go to, but none of us are willing to go first. So tha lather starts rising and then you realise you cant breathe without a waterfall of toothpaste coming out your nose......
Yes it`s been an eventful day.
And now I am in Queenstown and it`s the best place in earth so I will be here...............
for a while!!!!!
btw... this damn computer still has nowhere for photos to be uplodaded SO SORRRY! Imagine Lord of the Rings.... and if you haven`t watched it..... THEN RENT IT!!!!! And imagine EVEN BETTER STUFFF.................

Hi Amy
NZ was incredible - i will def be back, hopefully in the winter when the

Place for me indeed - inspiration rolls around the landscape, caught in the mists that curls around the snow-capped peaks. If only there were enough time to capture it - although some thoughts are best left to swirl in the mystery of it all.
I do hope you have a good time when you go - be mindful of the sandflies though - I still have the marks around my feet from their little nips.
Flossed and tucked tightly into bed, minus the waterfall of toothpaste foam from the nose!

ahhhh it ALWAYS happens doesn`t it? ~shakes head~
I suppose the other way of looking at it is that if the wind hadn`t have blown the receipt off the dashboard then I would have missed out on the scenery all together! Sometimes it`s worth it
