I don't think I'll be able to get up there this summer, Vaughan. Congo
finishes late and Hong Kong starts early, so I only have 6 days open
before summer school, and 6 days after. Basically, this will be the
summer without a summer. Bummer.

However, SWMBO is starting her 2-year program in London this summer,
and I'm finishing mine this year, so next year I will have the entire
summer free. I might accompany her to the northlands and spend a big
chunk of it in scandahoovia. I have this sinking feeling that my
cherished summer trips up to that slice of heaven are tracking away
from me as life takes its course. You know how much I love that part
of the world, but sometimes life carries us in and out and its just
too damn hard to steer it. Are there any trips to NZ in your future?
I'd certainly be in interested in making my way down there to meet up
and fish.
