In an hour we (S, my colleague T, and I) are leaving for Queenstown, NZ to hike the Routeburn Track. We are meeting a few of S's friends from the States. We were supposed to connect in Christchurch, but in case you hadn't heard, that's not happening, so we rerouted through Auckland.
It has turned out to be a bit of an ordeal and our flight now leaves Sydney tomorrow at 7:00am. Given that we should get to the airport 1.5 hours before our flight leaves, and we should give about 3.5 hours to get from Newcastle to Sydney, well, you can do the math. Not only that, no trains leave between 9:30pm this even and 2:45am tomorrow morning. We had to book at a backpackers (i.e., a hostel) just to get 5 hours of sleep. Oh well, at least we're (hopefully) on our way.
With any luck, I'll be back in a week and a half with lots of great photos to share with you all.
