Weary traveller returns

Wasn't as tired this trip back as last time, funnily enough.
~~~

A sunny trip south on Friday (the weather was glorious all weekend in fact). Mild traffic, got away from the worst after Timaru. Arrived in Dunedin, deposited passengers, checked into motel, acquired dinner partied.

Turnout was a little low, but the dancefloor kept happening. My leg held up well and [livejournal.com profile] trashpants didn't actually have to dance for me at any stage.

Piked about 12-30, 1am.

Breakfasted, met up with [livejournal.com profile] salahdra for a while, turned up to photograph killing round. My leg was starting to complain so after a short while I refrained from actively following the participants.

Settled in at the House of Cards for the rest of the afternoon to burn & distribute CDs of photos from the Deviance & Decadence and Chch 48. Observed board games.

Freshened up, had dinner, stuck my shiny bits to Jade.

Partied some more. Still managed to dance despite increasing protestations from leg. Piked around midnight with a taxi run. Didn't get to sleep until much later due to some LOUD drunken idiots playing rugby in George St just along from the motel (my unit was streetside).

Did I mention that my unit was laid out very like a dungeon? All it was missing was an orc and a treasure chest. [/geek]

Helped tidy and move furniture. Played a couple of games of Settlers (won the second convincingly :) ). Burnt off a CD with the public distribution fo the weekend's photos ([livejournal.com profile] xenogram currently has custody of all above mentioned CDs). Acquired an extra passenger and headed northwards about 3:30pm. Traffic was light.

Prius ticked over 50,000 kms just north of Ashburton.

Delivered passengers, arrived home, fed cat, caught up on email and LJ (of which there was less than expected).

~~~
I plan to upload photos from both 48s next weekend, individual mailouts will probably happen before then :)

~~~
Something else was planned to go here, but I forgot.
