Everyday is a new adventure

Tall one and Small one met in New Zealand, in the kiwi fruit orchards of Tauranga back in early 2009. From there spent 2 years travelling across Australia together; penniless in Sydney, 15 hour shifts in a Blue Mountains Hotel, picking Blueberries with spiders in Coff's Harbour – watermelons with snakes in Charters Towers, pushing their campervan, 'Tony' through the flood waters of Miriam Vale, breaking down in every state through the outback, and working and drinking side by side in an Irish Pub and Backpackers in Melbourne.

Across the globe through Vietnam, Thailand & Moscow before spending a year in Canada; through the seasons in Toronto, 35 hour Greyhound buses across the provinces, dog sledding in the Rocky Mountains, shovelling 3 foot snow in the Yukon, Kayaking in Haida Gwaii, sharing a beer among the icebergs of Newfoundland and spotting whales in Nova Scotia.

Before returning to New Zealand in Oct 2012 to live the beach life in Mount Maunganui, experience the earthquakes of Wellington and finally getting married on Te Ahumairangi Hill, Wellington in Oct 2013. Finally on 2nd Oct 2013 they embarked on an 80 day honeymoon back across the globe, through the south island of New Zealand, up to Singapore, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand and finally through north India before returning to Ireland, where they are now attempting to make a home in Galway. Many miles travelled together, many sights shared together, everyday is the start of a new adventure.

09-10-08 No turning back.

I would like to leave this city. This old town don’t smell too pretty and I can feel the warning signs running around my mind. And when I leave this island I’ll book myself into a soul asylum And I can feel the warning signs running around my mind. So here I go still scratching around the same old hole. My body feels young but my mind is very old. So what do you say? You can’t give me the dreams that are mine anyway. You’re half the world away. Half the world away. Half the world away. I’ve been lost I’ve been found but I don’t feel down And when I leave this planet, y’know I’d stay but I just can’t stand it and I can feel the warning signs, running around my mind And if I leave this spirit, find mea hole and I will fill it and I can feel the warning signs, running around my mind. So here I go still scratching around in the same old hole. My body feels young but my mind is very old. So what do you say? You can’t give me the dreams that are mine anyway. You’re half the world away. Half the world away. Half the world away. I’ve been lost I’ve been found but I don’t feel down. No I don’t feel down. No I don't feel donw. I don’t feel down. I don't feel down.
