A Picnic A Day Keeps The Budget Okay

We really liked Sydney! Due to our admin error when booking flights we ended up with just three or four nights in Sydney and in that time we had to explore the city, pack down the bikes and visit some lovely friends!

I could not believe our luck when @‌leaveit2cleave were in Sydney exactly when we were. We’d been planning a meeting for months. The four of us got talking pre-pandemic when we were both our cycle touring.

After five and half years of (impatiently) waiting, Stew proposed to me in Queenstown, New Zealand. This “Yes,” came even easier than when he invited me to cycle around the world one month into dating.

Our time in Queenstown was like a holiday! But I can’t say the same for the flight. The journey was quite turbulent, the worst we’d both experienced.
