Jill and I arrived in Rotorua this morning after a total scramble to get out of Wellington. In the next month, We’ll be on a plane 13 times, a helicopter, boats, cars, kayaks, trains, buses, vans, taxis, a gondola, a ferry, a quadbike, and even a camel. More on that in the full blown vacation report. Anytime you see a sign like this it usually means you’re in the middle of absolutely nowhere. In a way we are, and it’ll sum up the whole journey. According to the sign L.A. is 6488 miles away and San Francisco is 6502. So San Francisco is only 14 miles from L.A.? …said the dumb guy.<\/p>\n
