Leaving NZ



I thought I was organised but ... when I got to the airport I was way over weight for the plane. I didn't want to fuss but Sonya decided to challenge this. These photos are of Sonya and Tristan emptying my stuff on the airport floor so I could get on the plane without too much of a penalty. They reduced my overweight costs from $1200 to $600. Well done Sonya and Tristan. They got plastic supermarket bags from a shop stuffed them full and took 9kg home. Great team.
There is a moral to the story – don’t use those suitcases with metal frames but plastic or canvas ones with no frames weigh nothing. This little exercise saved $600. How easy was that!!
