Looking UP in 2008
It’s been a great start to 2008. We had a gadget filled Xmas: Nintendo DS Lite, Leapster, Eyeclops, a head mounted video camera, and an OLPC.
After Xmas I spent a week doing some long overdue gardening (weeding, to be more accurate). Which is where I came across this beauty!
Then the family hopped on the Interislander to spend two awesome weeks off-the-grid at the top of the South Island. We camped for a week and then we shared a holiday house on the Marlborough Sounds the week after.
To top it off, Emory and I conducted our own personal Amazing Race to see the Police in Auckland. We started with a ferry crossing, rushing to the airport, buying tickets, jumping on a plane, booking a hotel, rushing by taxi to the concert, then we spent most of the concert in an ambulance.
Expect a big update to my Flickr site this week.
What’s UP 2008?
Last year I participated in the ‘What’s UP’ predictions event. They’re having a follow up 2008 event and I’ve been invited back to face my predictions and make some new ones.
Last year was great fun, so I definitely recommend it.
