Destination X

It was a pretty uneventful trip to the Fiji Islands even though my flight was a bit delayed. I thought I would have trouble like I did on the way into New Zealand but it was not to be so – lucky for me! Upon my arrival, my airport pickup was waiting for me and with a flower put in my hair we were off to the hostel. It was well after dark when I arrived but I could already see and feel a great time ahead. After I got settled into my room I came out to be greeted with a Kava circle where I was to sit at the head of it. I have never in my life had so much kava! For hours we sat and played music, drank kava and talked to each other. This was exactly what I needed, right on point. There is also something to be said about how long my hair has grown – for many have pointed it out! Of course I was massively tired around midnight and had to cut my stay short, but much more there will be in the days to come.

Besides, X marks the spot, for this is the final destination before the journey around the world is complete. Not to suggest that this is the end of the travels, but it is one accomplishment Void has gained. X marks the spot and hopefully this is where the best magic will happen!

On the hidden site, time to move

On my last day before heading out to the Fiji Islands, Sebastian and I took another walk around Auckland. We found a nice little hidden graveyard where I snapped a few more photos and soaked in the rays of the sun in preparation for the next two weeks. Later that day I met a few other travelers and had bid farewell to a bunch more.

You are like little candy

Today Sebastian and I took a stroll down to the wharf to shoot some photos. Everyone seems to be outside today as they are getting ready for tomorrow’s Rugby kickoff. I don’t really know much about the sport but it seems to be a pretty popular one! We eventually stumbled upon a dock where we made camp for a few hours. It overlooks the city which made for some excellent photos!

“But consider; Visibility depends on the action of the visible bodies on light. Either a body absorbs light, or it reflects or refracts it, or does all these things. If it neither reflects nor refracts nor absorbs light, it cannot of itself be visible.”
– H.G. Wells, The Invisible Man

“The flag is a symbol we attach our emotions to, but it isn’t the emotion itself and it isn’t the thing we really care about. Sometimes we don’t even realize what we really care about, because we get so distracted by the symbol.”
– Tom Wolfe, The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test
