Rock2Wgtn – Trip Down
Posted on March 25th, 2008 by hamstarWow. Rock2Wellington was mean. Convoyed it down on Friday following Riki, Aeila, and Shane in Riki’s van. Left at about 8 in the morning, flying my pirate out the van window. Was awesome, got so many toots and people yelling at me on the way down. We went down through Te Kuiti on the west side of Ruapehu. I think we got down there at about, 4pm, or 6pm. I don’t remember. Stopped at Ohakune for lunch. Never want to visit that town again – to many kids trying to be frikkin G-Units.
Met up with Marlo in Lower Hutt and went to his place. Which is a garage he rents for $20 a week and sleeps in his van haha, so classic. Just showers and everything at uni. Get Riki and Marlo together and its like a freakin Comedy Show.
We ended up staying at Riki’s dads best friends place up in Brooklyn. Was pretty good, camped up in my new van in my hammock. Just happened to be holes in the sheet metal at the perfect places. A long wheel base Hiace would’ve been better but meh.
