When you are too tired to travel..

What?  too tired to go on a holiday? Surely not!

But, yep, never have I felt so in need of a break, and its been a few months, or i should say a few too many months since my last trip, but I am finally about to embark on another adventure.  This one has been on my ‘Must Do’ list for a while.

I have been land-locked for a while, very busy with renovations for a new Air BnB apartment my brother and I have bought – it came up awesome and is booking well.  Then we managed to acquire the apartment directly above mine and finally ‘Leadfoot Lottie’ as we call her has moved out and we have begun renovating that one to move into so we wont have someone else stomping their feet above me all day again.

This last weeks mission for me has been to get all the wet areas ready and specialty paints applied, so that they have 7 days to harden uninterrupted before I come back and make some final adjustments (this girl has power tools and aint afraid to use them! [Insert Tim the Toolman Taylor-like grunts here] ) so the plumber can come back and do his thing.

Add to that, its that time of the year in NZ that all we accountants dread – a tax year has just finished so we are madly getting out clients work ready to go, plus my accounts work here in Oz….so, yep, I am due on a flight at 9.40am tomorrow.  Its 11pm now and I havent packed, and am just really to shagged to care.  But my newly painted benchtops and flooring look pretty!

Where am I heading?  Vanuatu!!  Been wanting to go there for ages, to dive the President Coolidge and Million Dollar Point.  Armed with my camera and newly replaced dome port (after my recent loss to Davy Jones’ locker – damn this is an expensive hobby I have) Im going to be diving a shipwreck I have been looking forward to ever since I began diving.

Just need to pack, get some sleep and hopefully recharge in time.  One night in BrisVegas, then its island time for this chick!
