It occurs to me that I don't appreciate her as much as she deserved it. The least
I can do is to write a post.
I love you sayang.

Support System
I strongly believe my wife is the bestest ever. She's been there when there's low and up in my life.

Where it Begins
Revisit where it started. The place more neat and well maintained now.
So it reminded me from the white nike shoes, excel sheet, Internet reading to the apps and what/ where am I now.
About two weeks more!

19 Days to Go
Ouch.
My kaki cannot tahan anymore and naturally push it out. Sort of. That little spike been inside my ibu jari kaki for like 5- 6months!? Looks like tulang ikan to me but didn't expect that sharp and long! I thought initially dah bawa keluar the main part that day so I resumed my life as usual. Macam Rambo sekejap tarik keluar. Urgh. I hope that's all lah!
Didn't change a thing tho. Another reason to complete this full marathon!

To the Finish Line!
When I started running and feeling yeah I can do full marathon.. It feels ages ago.
I was like let's do 5 half marathon first, run oversea race, do that lasik thingy first.. Bla, bla..
But heck no. None of the above happened and I'm gearing up for my FULL MARATHON! Muktamad.
Some people might thing I already did FM couple of times. That's not my problem. Back to reasoning above, sometimes you don't have to wait something to happen. Or make a condition for it to happen. There's no perfect time for anything. Just go for it lah or regret not doing it.
Wow. So motivated ni!
I don't know how it will turn out later but gotta try eh. Mentally prepared? Not yet. Just give all you can. Key word, discipline.
Till next time, adios

New Zealand 2016. North Island
Aaaa North je? Ok I get that a lot and that's it. Is not that we are not considering at all, in fact to choose going to New Zealand already went through number of challenge sessions. Need to convince the other half why NZ. Point is, NEW adventure, something we never did before. And now with Amni. It has to be all about her in a way la kan.
We decided not to join group of convoy (jimat di situ), airlines apa nak naik, whether we want to fly straight or transit and mode of transportation at NZ. I don't have much time, lets cut it short.
Day 1 (KUL-MEL-AKL)
Flying to Auckland via Melbourne. By the time we were at Tullamarine Airport it's already like 2 in the morning. Just resting, solat and get ready to board. Amni took little longer to sleep, lucky we got to use airport stroller and she's ok with it.
Day 2 (Auckland)
Arrived at Auckland. Checked in Gateway Airport Hotel. Stroll the area a bit but end up dinner at hotel's cafe (sedap). Oh internet is so important, don't forget to purchase simcard at the airport (recommended: Vodafone). Anyway most campervan park did offer limited free data (e.g. 100MB per device per day).
Day 3 (Matamata, Rotorua)
Picked up motor-home or caravan! It took longer than expected (briefing, technical glitch and what not). First thing, groceries shopping!
Then terus drive to Matamata; The Shire Rest- Hobbiton! A long the way.. fuh! memang hijau mata memandang. Ladang-lembu-kambing-blue sky-repeat.
Next Rotorua, checked in. Tak reti nak plug in power! Tak reti is too much, technically dah plugged in, connection tak berapa betul. Siap tukar tapak. Huhu..Mujur ada jiran Australian tolong (don't shy-shy to ask). Anyway got to enjoy mineral pool there, macam melekit dalam suam-suam panas- I supposed that to help you recover or rejuvenate or something.
Day 4 (Rotorua, Taupo)
Nothing specific set on this day, what I had in mind was that geothermal thingy which makes the city famous for. Also the Maori culture village lah (didn't go, time don't permit).. So we visited Hell's Gate (hell kedekut, dia pagar the whole area so you have to pay la to see; we are smarter than that), beautiful lookout point Blue & Green Lake; passed through Buried Village aaand Redwoods at Whakarewarewa Forest! Semua unique in their own ways. Haha tak do justice langsung tulis gitu
Day 5 (Taupo)
We got to enjoy the beautiful scenery of lake, mountain and water falls (Huka)!
Then 5 hours drive to Wellington. No RnR like here but the journey was something I like. Lalu gunung-ganang (so impressed to see Mt Ruapehu/ Mordor! for the first time), desert (tanah tandus; kang kena bahan budak wechat)- people asked sure boring kan lalu sini? Weh, not really. Area ni jadi tempat army punya training ground (no trespassing!) and the billboard ad there quite funny.
In and out small town pun best. We stopped at Bulls bought some kebab and stuff, eat somewhere-somewhere later. Ada satu town tu got airport dowh, padahal kecik je and tepi jalan, we didn't see the runway.
Nak menyampai ke Holiday Park, Wellington sekali kena lalu bukit-bukau- sebijk macam fellowship of the ring. Dah la gelap time tu. Memang nampak cantik la town from up there but we didn't prepare for that. Serious ah Tomtom.
Tengok, cerita drive pun boleh panjang lebar, nak elaborate details lelain.. ok focus.
Day 6-7 (Wellington)
Obviously a big city (really?). Being capital city of New Zealand just imagine Putrajaya. Bit challenging to drive there. But the weather! Fuhh.. Berbaloi beli baju tebal Amni. Hehe. I think its more due to the wind and drizzle. Highlights here a cable car, masjid visit and Weta Cave! We went there twice because it just worth the visit.
Oh highlight yang penting is TAK JUMPA kedai makan halal yg letak flyers kat Holiday Park-sekali dah tutup/ tukar owner! Sejuk oi.
Day 8 (Ruapehu)
Driving bit relax from Wellington, stopped at Otaki. Lunch best, coffee best, yogurt ice cream pun best!
We stayed at Mt Ruapehu, jungle feeling. Fun fact: Evacuation reminder due to eruption; earthquake and flooding. Fuh. Got yellow and green area for assembly point.
Up there, the best coffee ever! Probably with the weather. Acah-acah main salji sikit, naik chair lift. Lumia battery kong! Urgh. And forgot to fully utilize gopro; ok bukan forgot just tak berapa nak manage.
Day 9 (Waitomo)
Glowworm cave. Could have done better if we know earlier the arrangement. Amni cannot go in, so mommy kena sacrifice. Wuuu T_T
Lunch at cafe Huhu. Apalah kan maksudnya tu. Huhu.. Sedap jugak.
Ada pernah cakap tak sedap ke sepanjang trip? Makan bukan kerisauan langsunglah NZ ni. Nak bayar banyak mana je. Seafood dia beli raw masak sendiri pun yummy. By the way, harga barangan kat sini insyaallah consistent mahal- tak kira la town ke, tasik ke, bukit ke, pump station ke, hulu banat mana pun coffee dia standard je harga. Way better dari kau beli coca-cola weh!
Day 10 (Balik)
Huhu...
From time to time will update kalau rajin. Teruskan sokongan! (self-monologue semua ni)
