Well, my little trip by myself is turning out to be the greatest thing I've done for myself lately. I'm in a little town called Napier in the Hawke's Bay Region which is about a 5 hour drive north of Wellington. I took a bus there and am staying in a hostel and my hostel roommates are two guys from London...they are really fun and have made good mates to hang out with the past few days.
This morning I woke up with no plan and walked around for awhile then found an Art Deco self-guided walking tour that I did with Pip, one of the guys I'm staying with. Then I signed up for a winery tour which turned out to be hilarious fun. We went to six different wineries and at each one tasted at least 6 different types of wines, I was definitely feeling it by the time we reached the 6th winery. It is all very cool and nice.
When I got back from the winery tour I went to the Ocean Spa and paid $8 to sit in a variety of spa pools that look out on the ocean and I chatted with two other ladies from London who were also from my winery tour. It was very relaxing. I am just now getting back from the most ridiculous game of trivia I have ever heard of. The questions were ridiculous and nothing made sense at all. Oh well, it's all good fun.
Who knows what tomorrow brings, still no plans but if it's as good as today it should be a fun time :)
PIP?! Lol, nice name, and you are starting to say mates now? lol. I love it, and you of course :)
