A quick stop into Wellington this morning to get some advice on the forthcoming countries from STA travel who claim "We know because we Go" and this indeed seemed the case. They did know and Maria their agent had gone. Armed with good info and a new Southeast Asia Loneley Planet from the nearby bookshop I made my way not to Vietnam but to New Zealand's Wanganui as I begin heading Northwards again.
In my opnion there is only one place to stay in Wanganui ...the AnnDion lodge following my earlier visit there on the way South. All was good and Dion took it as a real compliment to their hospitality that I chose to stay with them again on my return. So much so he opened me a cool beer on the house and after a blether I made my way to see their parrot Oz ...mainly to check if his language had improved any.....it had not
With that I practiced my swimming and chatted with the other backpackers. Not a tornado in sight....
