08/02/04 Week Fourty Nine and Week Fifty
Well I packed
up my stuff and threw it all in a friends car so they could take
it up North with them as it wouldn't fit in our car. Why did it
not fit you ask?.
Well young Kezlar and his family had accepted
our invite to come across to fabulous NZ for a holiday. Then we
raced over to pickup Kezlar, Mrs Kezlar and Junior Kezlar and
headed up North ourselves.
We headed up
to a place called Coopers Beach in the Far North of New Zealand
where my GF's parents have a fantastic beach house. Coopers Beach
is on the edge of Doubtless
Bay and there is no doubt in my mind that it is truly one
of the most beautiful places on Earth.
The weather
in Coopers
at this time of year is always fantastic. Well, its usually fantastic.
I have been going to Coopers at the same time every year for about
6-7 years and this was easily the worst weather we have ever had.
This year we
had a number of really nasty weather fronts peel off the east
coast of Australia and bring New Zealand REALLY heavy rain and
REALLY shit weather. We got 3 really beautiful days at the beginning
and 2-3 days at the end and the rest of it was raining and overcast.
At one point the rain was actually coming in horizontally under
the eves of the house.
Ah well, shit
happens. Sorry about that Kez. At least we had a couple of good
days.
After this
brief interruption we will be back to our regularly scheduled
Raid Updates as of this week.
