Counting down days till 2022

What an interesting year it has ended up being, so much has happened, covid has still stuck around.. and now we have the newer variant in NZ although I think it is only at the border.

Months of Lock-downs

Time flew by after this latest move of being in lockdown and at level 4 and 3…. this lockdown has been a lot different to last years one. With last year it was easier to know what was going on, as in how long we would be at each level for. Although now the south island and most of the north island are sitting at level 2 and have been now for over a month, while Auckland is at level 3 and a couple…

While there was this case in the community they had already begun to find the locations of interest that the person came into contact with over a period…

Trip to Kaikoura 🇳🇿

So I decided to go on a little bit of a spontaneous trip to Kaikoura, one reason was because it was my Grandma’s birthday. Also I had thought if I did go along that I would love to go Whale watching as it had always been something that I had wanted to do, all those other times that I had visited Kaikoura… Of course half of those times were because I did not have the money too. So I drove all the…

Trip to the Capital Part 2 🇳🇿

Part 2… After breakfast and getting all ready to check out of the hotel before we did some more exploring before we went to get on the ferry later in the afternoon. We first went to Cuba street, along the waterfront, Te Papa ( the top of my list to visit) so worth it because I got to see the Gallipoli exhibit which was just amazing. Wellington is quite a nice city to visit and I excited to go…

Thoughts

Have you ever felt like you wanted to do something but you have felt like it would be viewed as stupid or dumb or weird by other people…. well I had that moment the other day. The other day I was sorting out some of the graduation photos I had printed off earlier in the month and was sorting them out as to who wanted what photos. And then as I had some left over and a spare photo frame as I had…

Zookeepers Wife - A movie Review

Zookeepers Wife – A movie Review

A while ago I decided to finally watch one of the many movies that are sitting in my to be watched list on netflix. So I decided on Zookeeper’s Wife, it was a movie that I was meaning to watch one day when i had seen that it would be on the tv but by the time it came around to watching it, the movie was nearly finished that also could have been because I had forgotten all about it. Then one day…

Movie Review: Jackie

This movie looks at the life of Jackie Kennedy after the assassination of her husband JFK, which she was also there for. It was an ok movie I did find myself feeling a little confused during it, could just be because I don’t really know much of what went on after he was shot and really how it was like for Jackie, the acting was good though and was a little of the reason why I was watching it…
