My Spontaneous Trip To New Zealand

I booked a plane for New Zealand and headed out. The instant the plane landed I saw a kangaroo to chase. The other passengers were amused, but airport security wasn’t. I was chased by the best of them, and dragged to a holding area. There were other convicts here. We entertained each other. For several hours – breaking out the bubbly, toasting and snorting. There was some sleeping and breaking wind too. It was a small place, but I made the best of it. As did the others. Once released, my hotel room had been given away to others. So I slept in the lobby until a gentle woman took my hand. She led me out into the street and we drove around the island. I have no idea what her name was, but we were instant friends. We spent several days together, making jokes, shopping, laughing. It did not get weird until she told me I looked like her missing daughter. I crept out during the night and got back on a plane heading for home. You can barely imagine my surprise when I woke up….. And she was sitting in the seat next to me.

Spontaneity, insanity, and zany, all rolled up together...

Trixie was the instigator or this disaster. I could barely hold on to her pen!
