Level 3: Departures

Only a handful of minutes before we start boarding. Gosh it's an odd feeling. We've said many goodbyes, not too many tears though. It is a joyous thing to be chasing happiness so we will keep smiling.

Well, wish us luck that we have an empty seat in our row! (Turns out it was $600 each to upgrade to premium economy and $2000 each to upgrade to first class!) But he tried to get us in a row without anyone else so that was nice.

Here's to something different! We will surely miss you all (well unless you just stumbled across this site, we'd probably like to meet you before we miss you.) It's interesting to have an open-ended return on the books, I honestly don't know if we know any more than you at what point we'll be back. But, we carry you all with us and we are beaming back good thoughts to our friends and family.

Next time we update we'll be in Auckland! Hopefully with a mouthful of meat pie and Monteiths :)

Not for the squeamish

Well the long hours of work and planning and helping friends demo sheds and paper shuffling and biking and cooking and eating and cleaning have caught up with us and Dustin has relinquished his right to tell his story from last week. **Note, the pictures are gross so beware if you are a little faint seeing blood... So, last Friday I had worked the early shift and was back at home on a call with a virtual assisting client, so naturally my mobile was on silent, and as soon as I hung up, the home phone rang. (This is a phone that only people who have had a part in giving birth to one of us tend to use... that and wrong numbers, we get a surprising number of wrong numbers...) Anyways when Dustin's voice was on the other end the confusion began. "Hi, I'm at the hospital. Come here now." "What happened??" "I'm fine. Just come up here." (Wheels spinning in my head...) "Are you sure? I think it will take me too long to bike because I
