NZ Months #9, #10

Some good adventures over the last 2 months including a backpacking trip with Ada on the Mt. Sommer's track with friends.  Bethany and Junie turned back on day #1, which turned out to be a smart move given a dramatic turn in the weather with full on winter conditions.  Our hike out was 7 hrs of full on freezing rain/snow and exposed ridge lines. Ada was a total champ.  Some fun local events and then a week long trip to Fiji.

Found a big juicy coconut in Fiji.

I know I said I'd never attend another sporting event but I was convinced by the family to go to this rugby game.  Inconsistency is the hobgoblin of weak minds.
