December 2019
Paparoa, Old Ghost Road, Wellington and Edinburgh
December was a good month, mainly spent walking in New Zealand. I spent some time on the West Coast, with walking on the Paparoa Track. I then walked five days on the Old Ghost Road.
I spent Christmas in Wellington with the family; and then New Year back in Edinburgh.
In the new year I’ll be getting back to some contract development work, and starting training for the Edinburgh Marathon.
Happy 2020 to all my friends!

I didn’t do a lot of online reading as I was travelling. I did like exploring this thread of twitter threads on 1 like = 1 opinion.
