Things to do before day-trip to Hanmer

1. Dig out chilly bag and freeze some icecubes to put in it.
2. Dig out togs and make sure they're clean.
3. Clean out backpack, find two clean towels, and a tupperware container to put my shampoo in. (Lush Godiva shampoo/conditioner bar, I love it for its size and convenience.) Also pack knitting, hair brush, book, etc.
4. Wash hair!
5. Pack things for picnic lunch:
- bread knife
- butter knives
- teaspoons
- in the morning: peel and stick plenty of carrots for lunchbox
- purchase at pak 'n' save (pending what other people are buying) 1.5l bottle of water, hummus, avocado, fruit (apples and nectarines), something snacklike yet healthy (hah), bottle of wine?, bread, yoghurt
6. Create a couple of playlists, charge phone and ipod.

Am I missing anything?

7. Pray to whatever diety you worship for snow

Good point! Although one of the girls I'm going with had a traumatising hanmer+snow experience (driving home with a restricted-license driver and a space saver spare tire) so I'm not convinced it's such a good idea. ;)

Hmm, well the only time I was ever in Hanmer when it was snowing I wasn't driving, but I don't recall any problems. It remains one of my all-time fondest memories, though, so while YMMV personally I think a bit of road angst is worth the pay-off!

So I only just learned from our kiwi counselors this summer that "togs" is what you lot call a bathing suit. And that's weird. :D

Bathing suit is so... formal! It's crazy to me. :P

Amiss Footprints

The colour of the sea in a certain place at twilight. The spidery feeling of candy floss being spun onto your hand. Stray hints of scent you can't quite remember: warm perfume and something that feels like freshly turned earth and chocolate.

Also, sunglasses. Expect brightness.
