Travelling light is an alien concept to me.  It doesn’t matter where or when I’ve travelled in the world I always seem to wind up lugging a dead weight of luggage around with me.  My overnight trip to Auckland was no exception although this time is was most definitely the weight of technology that weighed me down.  That and my girlie toiletries!

Laptop, iPod, cell phone, camera, lenses and power leads for all said technology. Although I did use this e-paraphernalia I might look to be more discerning in future.  The one thing I wouldn’t do without though is my camera. Being in a different environment connected me with my camera again in a new and exciting way.  Pity I didn’t have much time for photography per say but I made the most of a ferry ride to see the view of Auckland I like best.  Travelling away from it!
