What's New....?

As a matter of fact, I did, although not during summer season. It was in mid September, I visited two cities, Auckland and Wellington. In terms of weather, it’s comfortable. I only needed to wear a T-shirt and pants. It was needed to wear coat in early morning, though. Wellington really was very windy.

(Yep, that’s me. I am even heavier now, though :blush:)


:arrow_up: An interesting looking Burger King :hamburger:

Well yeah, I had never been there, so I’d like to visit the country as well. But my trip will likely be all about cars! Headquarters and museums of German manufacturers, Nürburgring racetrack, Autobahn, etc. It is probably better to visit there during summer and after pandemic, I’d imagine. :heart_eyes:

Nothing of interest happened here :stuck_out_tongue:
Clubbing is nice tho, i guess

The Autobahn is nice, but sometimes i wonder if we shouldnt introduce a tempo limit everywhere. Its crazy when you drive like 140 km/h and get passed by sportscars driving like 100 km/h more than you :sweat_smile:

EDIT: you should smile more, look at your sister she seems happy :smile:

Same but she hates festivals so it probably wouldn’t work out

Oh wow that’s fantastic. Yeah for the weather thing it can get somewhat warm or windy during most of the year. It gets real bad on winter nights and in the middle of the night where I’m unable to sleep. :slight_smile:

That Burger King looks about the same as every other food company in the city haha. I haven’t been to Wellington so I’ll just describe what I know for Auckland - literally everything, including most Queen Street, all looks modern and makes good tourist attraction points such as the viaduct or the SkyTower. I think around 2008-2009 it was being redesigned for a more modern feel and so far it looks great. Also has a great atmosphere for getting wasted at the clubs haha.

(Not my pic, just one taken from a quick search)

In the end though it’s still largely a city and you’re better off exploring other parts of the country too. Places like One Tree Hill and Rangitoto Island are both largely in the Auckland district, but places like Lake Taupo or the Cape Reinga lighthouse are also nice to visit.

I really need the full version of my family photo album now, because I am pretty sure I’ve been to SkyTower. My sister seemed to be really interested in the jump experience they offered, but we eventually didn’t do it. She got herself a kiwi bird toy in the souvenir shop, though.

Well, I’ve looked into my family photo album and somehow couldn’t find a better picture at the moment, but I will try it next time! Perhaps a big smile will be put on my face when I finally make it to Frankfort International Motor Show in the future. :grin:

@MrOchoa I’ve just read that the show will be permanently moved to Munich from 2021 onward. But I will probably find another reason to visit you and the city sometimes, I think. Thank you for being kind and awesome! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

If you ever make it to Frankfurt am Main, let me know, i live like a 45min drive away, we could get a beer together :beers::stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I haven’t even been skydiving yet and I always shy away from doing so. I don’t have a fear of heights or anything but I still can’t gain any courage to do it yet. :stuck_out_tongue:

They do offer a nice casino though…

I’m shocked that these jackasses are still up to the challenge (and pain) for another movie :grin:
Can’t wait to see it!

All symptoms gone! Celebrated by eating a hotdog (probably not the best thing to eat now) but who cares? Still have to stay at home for about a week until the quarantine ends.

Just so everyone knows, @TheContractor is definitely alive, at least as of June 15.

He’s got a Silent Assassin time on the Sloth Escalation Level 3, so… it’s not like he got hit by a bus on May 28 and that’s it. He’s got and played the Sloth content at some point since then.

I’m sure he’s just taking a break from gaming and Hitman, occasionally popping back in for the new content. Maybe we’ll see him again here someday. (Maybe I’ll see his time on the Lust content too :eyes:)

Glad to hear he’s still alive and kicking. Hopefully all is well with him.

In other news, I’ll be visiting my family in Boston in the middle of next month for a week. We kept in touch but I haven’t seen them in ten years. Feeling pretty excited.
