@imnotdaredevils I was knitting Mary a wrap sweater and she asked me to knit the ties extra long so they could tie in front and I got lost in the sauce and accidentally made the first tie 45in long
@frogzier The Antarctic centre in Christchurch would be an on brand visit for you also! Wellington and Auckland both have good maritime museums and the Edoras LOTR tour (also in Chch) was my favourite one out of all the ones I’ve done
@frogzier luckily it wasn’t too bad! I just had to sleep propped up for like three nights. A few months later I saw a reel of someone else who got it but worse than me and I said to Mary “oh wait that’s totally what happened to me”
@frogzier Recovery was pretty chill! I ended up getting ovarian hyper stimulation syndrome (but didn’t realise until later) so I was a fairly sore and short of breath for the first few days but overall I was mostly just taking it easy and trying to manage the bloating 😅
@frogzier we saw like 44 different species of birds and got to see some western grebe do their mating dance all before 10am 😂 it was so fun and then Mary needed a nap
