Well it finished on the 17th last year and I took like 150 pictures and I have been putting it off until now XD
18 days late but oh well. Here are my best 52 pictures and videos depicting the trip.
The journey.
Day 1.
Leaving Wellington

It was quite windy. I don’t know who that dude is BTW but oh well

In Mulburough Sounds, conditions slightly better

Berthing

Wow I’ve never got sunburnt in the car before. XD

Day 2 of journey
(I was sitting in the back seat so not as many photos)
Looking at Southern Alps under clouds

Very straight roads...

10 degrees... quite a difference from 29 yesterday! XD

Again

Day 2
Day 2 was hot.

Soz that’s the only photo I got that day. I took quite a few videos you see. :/
Day 3
Safe tea? How can tea be safe?

That’s right people. We strapped someone to a parachute and dragged them behind the car. :D

I’ll try and screenshot one of my videos so you can see him flying.
Day 4
There were loads of insects. And they’d follow you around!

All the gliders at launch

And it rained. In fact, it rained for the next 4 days. :(

A cool pic I took while it was raining

Day 5
Evenings by the open fire

Wow so many pics that day XD
Day 6
A crashed glider (the dude flying was killed)
“Hey! You’re not supposed to see that!” Casually takes picture

Comic Sans used in weird places

Launch

Day 7
Wow! What brilliant weather! The only reason I stayed was because they did some important briefings that morning.

I didn’t even bother flying that day. The weather was just terrible! I just went to a steam punk museum with my dad and my brother lol.
Day 8
I got a flight in the other, not pregnant Cub. Very fun :D

OH MY GOD! WHAT IS THIS WEIRD BRIGHT SPOT IN THE SKY???

This is the day I did my loop. :D
Day 9
The weather was up...

Until we had to pack up because there was a massive thunderstorm heading straight for the airfield... which hopped over us and it didn’t rain a single drop XD

I didn’t get a flight that day because of that. :(
Day 10
Beautyful skies

Pic of glider

Cracker of a day!
Lol
I like nuggets...
Nope, including Thailand too XD @jamesPLANESii
@Spectre2520 Must be Australia XD
Nice @jamesPLANESii
45?! Where do you live? @D0M1N4T0R
That’s one hot leg
@jamesPLANESii
Ah, ok makes sense.
The prototype was based off a crashed Pawnee, but that’s where the similarities end lol. @JohnnyBoythePilot
Nah. He flew into a mountain after turning the wrong way. I turn away from mountains. :) @Iamadeadmeme
Wow New Zealand sure is pretty. That would be an awesome place to visit. Also that tow-plane is most likely a Piper PA-25 Pawnee unless it's some modified or licensed produced version under a different name cause you said it's not what we think it is and most people would probably think it's a Pawnee. Your guy's ferries are also very different than what I have in the Puget Sound.
Were you scared of any of this after you found out someone died?
Cool, looks like fun!
saucy
Epic!
