Tickets booked!

My tickets arrived at STA Travel Hamilton today for me to pick up. I spent 3/4 of my lunch break getting to and from with expectations of a fairly monumentous occasion and high excitement from actually having the tickets actually in my hand. Unfortunately 'twas not to be. No special sparkly feeling, not even a small butterfly or two - I was rather disappointed. But hey, what cha gonna do?

I also booked my train passes as well. NZ$782 later and I have a train pass for 7 days unlimited travel in Japan and 10 days to be used within a one month period in Germany - score!

But fear not my travel blog readers (you know that no-one reads this, right?) I will endure! I don't know exactly what I'll endure seeing as everything is going swimmingly, but I shall endure it none the less.

A wicked pic, well, I think it's nice

I took this photo a few weeks ago but I've only just realised its excellent potential as a background. Oh, and I'm stoked that it's the view from my bedroom window! As always, if you click on it, it should link to a higher res picture.
