Andy is in New Zealand and ready to write a blog

Ta da, I know some of you are wondering, what is all this 'I' stuff in the blogs. Did Andy and Stacy split up? Did she dispose of Andy in an underground New Zealand cave, or some damn thing they have in the southern hemisphere? Well, the answer is no and no. We are great and really eyes wide open as the journey gains momentum. Its just that Stacy is writing while I am looking at porn on the internet. There is just not enough time in the day, ya know!?!

Well, the truth of the matter is that I am really soaking up this relaxation thing. Bullsh--! says Aunt Nancy, but truly I am in my element. I have powered through a few books (has anyone read the Kite Runner!?! WOW!) and shuffling about my days at a snail's pace. We have been bustling some with Paul and Diane, buying a friggin' car and stuff!!! But really its been relaxing walks/hikes, wine in the evenings and some journaling as well. Believe it or not, I am only 2 days behind right now in my paper journal and plan on catching up tonight. The driving has been a trip, and neither of us are too quick to scream "shoulder!" as we veer some to the left. But no worries parents, we have it down pat now and I even drove 1+ hours last night in the dark on our windy return from the Maori experience Stacy wrote about previously. That was remarkable. So well done and such an amazing setting. Stacy & I put our events hats on at one point and gave them 4+ stars out of 5, the dinner setting could have been just a touch more authentic and less cafeteria. The main guide reminded me of the actor, Jeff Goldblum (the Fly) pre-experimentation.

I am ready to grab a brewski shortly so until we meet again, I miss you all and wish you the very best. Keep checking in for more of Stacy's updates...I'm sure i'll be back soon...ANB

Nice pick-up on the rig you two. Didn't Bob drive one of those back in the day? Everything sounds like an unbelieveable experience. I feel relaxed just reading your blogs. It's fairly easy to see who the eloquent one is in the relationship. Surfing porn?? Classic. Keep on keepin' on. When you guys are on your last day in New Zealand I would recommend going Dukes Of Hazzard on the 626. How often are you going to get a chance to launch a perfectly good vehicle? How fun did it look in "Road Trip"? I'm just saying.
