Christmas, It's very quiet without family here.
26th December 2003
I took my new picnic backpack and the family and went up to Victoria Park for a hike. We chose a half hour walk down the hill. It took us about 2 hours all in all. We stopped under some shady trees on a carpet of pine needles and had lunch, egg salad sandwiches and those wonderful golden kiwi fruit.
We came across some mountain bike tracks. These "tracks" were more like a series of cutaways, ravines and launch pads.
We laughed again at the insanity of these sports mad Kiwis. Later we came across the twisted frame of something that was once a bike. We briefly searched for the owner's remains. We decided to to leave well enough alone and headed back to the summit, exhausted but extremely satisfied with our hike.
