One day until departure.
Is it really going to be as cold as people (and the NZ weather bureau) say? Will I use half the hardware I’m taking with me? Should I not have purchased a drone and kept the money for things such as food and water instead?
Heck no! At least for that last one. I’ll subsist on dry Maggi noodles and a cup of lukewarm water for the contents of the sachet if I must.
What’s the correct underwear:socks ratio again? How many bow ties is too many, really?
Despite these uncertainties, around this time tomorrow, I will have landed in Christchurch. With a belly full of plane food and a head full of wonder, I’ll make my way through customs and be churned out the other end like a… I don’t know, like a tourist sausage.
I’ll be staying at the Jucy Snooze near the airport for the first night.
