Arrived in Turangi yesterday afternoon (no hitching yet, still the bus). Sadly, the scenery is no longer beautiful. Strip malls are everywhere and there's way too many SUVs on the right. Just kidding! It continues to be gorgeous.
Anyways, we're staying in the Extreme Backpackers here in Turangi (no idea why the name is that - maybe its that they have an attached climbing wall, that and everyone here is totally extreme. especially my dad). I was tiring of not having the joy of cooking, so we bought (I use that term loosely - dad bought) pasta, sauce and veggies so I could actually cook something. after figuring out which burners work (nothing like a game of burner roulette) i got the water boiling and veggies sauteeing - ahhhhhh cooking. the smells. yay. so happy to do that. alas i wasnt alone in the kitchen anymore (yeah i started cooking at 5:20) - i was joined by one man. he was making a whole package of bacon (nothing else). then another man, whose desire was 4 boiled hot dogs. boys can be so silly.
the meal was good. the end.
