Still Alive

Sorry for the limited communications. I'm in L.A. now. I'll post an epilogue when the chemicals in my brain stop making the room spin (hopefully tomorrow).

Right now.

It's sushi time!

Vanilla Ice

We traveled up from Queenstown to Franz Josef today to hike to the glacier. We are running out of funds and cannot afford the $140 guided tour to actually climb around the glacier. Bummer. Still, here are some decent pictures.

coincidentally, this was the 911th picture taken on my camera... I'm not joking.

Queenstown.

Queenstown again.

Franz Josef at night.

I caught Mike at the peak of his swing jump. More Dew dude!


Into the maw of the glacier.

Drive near Queensland.

En Zed.

Sheep.

This internet is expensive. I'll write more later.

Folly of Youth.

Well... I lost a 3 hour post. So, fuck.

In other news.

More Ankor.

Cambodia is hardcore.

I've been craving a Thai bucket.


you guys keeping up with "Knife Show"?

Town of the Queen

So. I'm in Queenstown at the moment. To quote Borat, "It is nice". The town itself reminds me a lot of staying up in Vail. The south island has been very, very pretty. Lots of hot sheep to stare at too.

Big plans, low funds. The trip is winding down. It takes a lot of effort for me to wake up every day and not run to apply for a workers visa and live here for a year.

I'm not really kidding.

K-Smooth's birthday was yesterday. We were some krunked out dingos at the bar last night.

Nothing else is really new.

Me Mah

It's St. Patricks day here. I've never celebrated St. Paddy's day with more Irish in my life.

Some of you may get a kick out of this

Catch you guys later. St. Patrick's Day, Pamplona style. Running of the Leprechaun.

Mt. Doom

So. We rented a car, and drove through the entire north island in a day. I drove on the opposite side of a car, on the opposite side of the road, on the opposite side of the world for about 4 hours.

I passed within 20 kilometers of Mt. Doom today, with Isildur's Bane snugly on my finger. I had an urge to drive through the national park, climb to the top of Mount Ngauruhoe, and throw it in. But I am a weak soul. It is my precious.

The scenic route traveling south on the 1 is truly amazing. New Zealand is fucking gorgeous, and we still have the entire south island ahead of us.

We arrived in Wellington at a reasonable hour, ate, and Mike and I ran to catch a 9pm showing of "Hot Fuzz". A thoroughly enjoyable, hilarious, film.

Queenstown and the worlds largest Bungi jump lie ahead. Wish me well.

Nearing Antarctica

Nothing to report, really. The same drunken debauchery. The same club songs every night. The difference is that we are amongst the Kiwis now. Auckland is a nifty city. Lots of rain, and it's a bit cold. We plan on renting a car, and somehow figuring out how we are going to get all the way down to the south island and back to Auckland by the 27th.

This afternoon I got my hair shampooed for free to help some girls pass an exam.

Seriously, the rest is just not noteworthy. Running out of money. Having horrible nightmares--I woke up crying this morning.

Weird.
