Depart Queenstown New Zealand for Bankok Thailand

Well, Fran left on 12 June for Thailand after spending some quality time with family in Gisborne. About three 2.5 weeks later, I arrived in Thailand sporting a massive grin from the Guns n' Roses conert in Auckland (Vector Arena). I went with longtime firends Matt and Anita, whom I hadn't seen in ages. Thanks guys, it rocked!

What a morning after though! After calmly walking towards the check-in at Auckland Airport at about 11am, I was soon to discover that my plane had in fact already left! (at 5:30 that morning!). I nearly fell-over when she told me; but I was soon comforted, as she politely said that the plane had been grounded anyways and I was in for a complementary 4 star hotel and breakfast! Woohoo!
