    Back from my week off in NZ. Absolutely stunning scenery all around, it was just one incredible vista after another and I wondered how this place was real.

    Had a couple days skiing as well, thankfully I remembered how to snowboard even though the last time I was at the snow was something like 8 years ago, much fun had. One aspect I had forgotten is how bloody expensive skiing is. It was more worth it for this trip because I wasn’t just going there for skiing, but I can’t imagine sinking that kind of money to go to the Victorian ski resorts.

    Back at it today and still exhausted even after two recovery sleeps, not even the wind could keep me awake last night. I think I’ve reached the age where I need my own accom when going away with a group of friends, because I was only getting 5 - 6 hours of sleep in our Airbnb house every night and while I didn’t really feel it there, as soon as I got home it all hit me.

    Apparently I missed a lot of wind?! My backyard looked like it had been trashed.
