I'm a little late again. It's already after Easter, I spend an extended weekend in London, and I still haven't thought about exactly what clothes I want to take to New Zealand (departure in three weeks), let alone washed. So I sort some of my clothes into the laundry and enjoy my short holiday before the big adventure.

In the meantime I am back from London and have also washed the last socks. It's high time to deal with the New Zealand Nature Conservation Agency. They seem to be quite strict. So I will wash my herrings thoroughly, as well as the tent tarpaulin, hiking shoes, bicycle tires and anything else that could be dirty in any way.
