Another Journey: New Zealand

So. While there are still a couple of posts from Singapore and Borneo waiting to be written, I should probably interrupt that train of thought with a few tidbits from New Zealand, hey? We’ve decided to split up and give me an opportunity to check out Weta, the other company on my bucket list. Quite the year, this! This is probably not going to be a very coherent post, and the entertaining bits about kids will be missing, too. But yeah. New Zealand!

Excursions to the Lands of Villains and Giants

 

We’re on the home stretch now – only 4 weeks to go until my contract wraps up and we’re free to travel a bit, clear our heads, enjoy some jungle and some beaches, and head home to our (sort of) own four walls. Crazy! While ‘Solo’ has finally wrapped after some more painful Saturdays, the next project doesn’t look to be any better in terms of weekends. But we did some stuff, so here are some pictures. And little text (go ahead, cheer), because I’m lazy.

One-Day Weekends Make For Short Adventures

Hey hello! Thanks for being patient! Honestly, nothing too interesting is happening over here. Along with the fact that there are better things to do in the few moments of free time we do have than writing about uninteresting things, that makes for slow blogging. But it’s been so long, so let us give you the latest and greatest. Read more

Hello again! While we’re still celebrating Chinese New Year (celebrations last 15 days), we spent my long weekend doing more things. Not terribly exciting things, but why should we do more exciting things than you have in the last two weeks, and where is your blog about those, huh? *cough* That escalated quickly… sorry. Apologies by way of photos, perhaps? Read more

Afterlife, Part I: End of an Era

 

Righty. It’s been a while, and we’ve taken a while longer to sort through all the photos, and then I’ve taken even longer to write stuff down. And because there’s a fair bit of material to chew through, let’s do a trilogy! Why not, they even made a trilogy out of the Hobbit, and that book is like four pages long. Also, let’s completely ignore the beautiful way our posts have been categorized, so far. Let’s mix Han Solo with Rollei photos and random bits and all. Revolution! Chaos! Anarchy! Read more

Quotes

And a bit of fun from work, before I go back to work, which is tomorrow. After the last show wrapped, I came to my desk in the morning and found my screens and graphics tablet covered in post-it notes from various colleagues, who had gone through the trouble (?) of assembling this fine list. It might just be a nice thing to look back to in a few years. 🙂 Read more

What Was That I Said? And Star Wars Spoilers.

“Didn’t they promise more posts? And pictures? And more and merrier?” We did, indeed. The thing is – everything has become so normal for us and we wouldn’t want to bore you. You go ahead and write a blog when nothing special ever happens, see how far you get. 🙂 But yes, of course, the seasons are a-changing, the wind has turned and turned again, warm sleet has transformed into cold rain, the sunsets come later and later every day, and – this is a big deal – I rode my bike home a few days ago and didn’t even need to turn on my lights!

A Sad And Lonely Place

It’s the last day on the show, and as is so often the case, it’s a looong day. I’m waiting for my shot to render, so I can go home (through a really miserable stormy and rainy night) to get a few hours of sleep. Tomorrow… well… later today we’ll finally finish, and I’ll hopefully get a full weekend afterwards. With my family. I hope they still know what I look like.

And then – promise! – there will be more and merrier posts on here. With more and merrier pictures. 🙂

Good morning, Europe! Have a great day!
