Beasts in Queenstown
The Dunedin Beasts team which I’m playing for in the Southern Ice Hockey League made a trip to Queenstown to play against a Queenstown team. We lost, but had heaps of fun en route

Beasts in the Easton Cup
I played for the Dunedin Beasts in the Easton Cup. I also dragged our superstar ring-in Jenel Bode to play with us Unfortunately she got injured and only played one and a bit games 
We got totally thumped in every game. Was lots of fun though and I can’t wait for the rest of the season!

Silverpeaks tramp
Mark Hareb, my flatmate Daria and myself went tramping on the Silverpeaks route, just out of Dunedin. Things started badly when my giant three liter bottle of water split only half an hour into the tramp. I carried it in for another hour and ditched at the turnoff where we would be arriving back to later in the day.
The route is quite old and hasn’t been maintained in a long time so picking out where you’re supposed to go was tricky. We didn’t get lost though However, later in the day the wind picked up incredibly strong. We were getting knocked off our feet all the time and we started to run out of water!
After much cursing from Daria and me getting quite dehydrated, we eventually made our way off the ridges, hence away from the wind and back to the water bottle I ditched earlier in the day.
All up it took us just over 13 hours to complete the tramp. En route I twisted my ankle a few times which I didn’t think was a major drama, however a week later was when I twisted the same ankle again and broke my leg
