Next office this trip is Lake Wakatipu aboard…


One of our stops was a small cove at the western end of the lake.

There’s a health retreat here and the skipper mentioned the retreat frequently complains about the volume of the ship’s on board commentary.

I was touring the bridge at the time and button to activate the ship’s horn was in arms reach.



The captain pointed out these trees, native to this part of NZ. I forget the botanical name but apparently everyone calls them broccoli trees.



Road to Glenorchy and some of the spectacular colours of the lake.



Wasn’t much demand for the sundeck…



… even when the Sun and rainbows came out.



Passing the only other large ship on the lake, TSS Earnslaw.



Our accom for the week as seen from the Lake. Peppers Queenstown.



Downtown Queenstown


Queenstown, New Zealand

I’d be more interested in the health retreat. It’s one of the items in my bucket list … often heard people going to health retreats come back rejuvenated and relaxed and able to think more clearly blah blah blah .. want to check it out for myself … perhaps a DSC status run Jan next year is in order?

I have never seen a photo of a San Marino registered aircraft before. There a few photos of it - a Boeing 737 Business Jet - dropping into various Asian airports over the last year or two. The owner is mostly shown as 'Private' but it appears to be operated by Asian Corporate Aviation Management of Singapore. I strongly suspect that a lot of very publicity shy money is involved in its trips.

This particular rego has been doing trips within Indonesia for the past week ...

Tonight's office view.

@Ade. Just as long as you’re back in time for our dinner. . Where’s the usual stairs up to the Dash?

No stairs … just a ramp … now that I think about it, I’ve never used stairs to get into the Dash so far. Ex-CBR, it’s always been the ramps for me ..

Re : dinner - I’m back to CBR tomorrow night. I’ll be there for our 11/10 AFF dinner

Edit : stairs on arrival at SYD

Tonight’s FNQ office view from Tha Fish

Yesterday’s office was at a Fletcher Hotel outside the town of Epe. It is a tired looking 4* hotel in need of tlc, in a nice woodland location great for walking or bicycling.


View from our room and if you look carefully the car park is visible between the trees.


On our after breakfast walk we checked out the nearby deer park.


We saw evidence that wild pigs have been digging for food. Not good if they do that in your garden!

On a sunny Sunday afternoon the Vondelpark in Amsterdam gets busy. At the cafe we waited much longer to order lunch and then for it to be ready than it took to eat it.
