The last supper

Our bus driver on Waiheke Island today mentioned that our final meal together as a tour group would be this evening. Simon, the bus driver, referred to it as our last supper. Very funny, Simon.

Somewhere along the path during our day today, Cas wanted to pose for a photo with our tour director Brigitte: 
 
So, there you have it. That is the tall French woman who has ushered us through two different countries. We said goodbye to her this evening along with most of the other people from our tour group. It was a lovely dinner in the hotel restaurant. I had lamb; Cas had chicken.

A lot of the people from our group made sure to wish us well this evening. Several of them want to see some photographs once we actually tie the knot.

Tomorrow, we have to be in the lobby at six am to meet up with the bus driver who will take us and another couple to the airport. Four passengers- we are going in a big tour bus all the way to the airport. I'm not sure that's the best use of that vehicle, but who am I to argue with a free ride?

This has been a fantastic trip, and our traveling companions have been a blend of fun, lighthearted and interesting. Is certainly a group that I don't think could be assembled in any other way than a tour group. I don't know how we would all have met, were it not for this journey.

Since I am sure a few of my traveling friends will read these words, I wanted to say it's been great. Thanks for adding something to our trip. I hope we added something to yours. 

We're off to Fiji tomorrow. On Wednesday, we have a wedding. We're almost there. Hooray!i

PS- Since I haven't mentioned it in a while, here's the link (again) to the photo album Cas has so carefully kept of our trip: 
He updates it as often as he can. 😉

  1. Cas, Thank you for reporting the safety record of the bungee jumping off that bridge. So happy to hear you are both safely back on the ground and heading for Fiji!!! Love to both from Dave and I.
