After an absurdly great weekend at Andfit CF in Auckland, with Wykie and some of the greatest humans on earth.
Jared and I are off to explore gorgeous New Zealand, or “Middle Earth” for you dorks out there. We are likely the first American expeditionary team ever to drive a Maloo Ute to Wellington; just to carry the luggage of the guy on the motorcycle.
Seems reasonable.
