Tuesday was my 21st birthday! Wahooo!
Although it’s not as much of a big deal here as it is in the US. The drinking
age is 18 here, so 21 doesn’t really mean anything. They still celebrate
though! And speaking of celebrating, Mum and I sure did! WE GOT TATTOOS!

We woke up pretty early and drove into town to look
for breakfast. We walked around a bit and finally decided on Bob’s Weigh for a
nice brekky before our day. We saw a tattoo place nearby, so we decided to go
in and talk to them. I’d thought about getting a tattoo to commemorate my stay
in NZ, but I didn’t really think about doing it on my birthday! We talked to a
couple tattoo shops, then thought about it a while before making a decision. We
finally made up our minds, and we did it! We got our tattoos done at White
Tiger, by a lovely man named Scott. He was so great! He explained everything to
us, and was so nice about everything.

| Scott! The best! |

Mum and I got the same tattoo – an outline of New
Zealand. Hers is on her right ankle and mine is on my left side, under my
armpit. I absolutely love it! It means so much to me.

| Exciting! |

| Whatta guy... |
On Tuesday, we also walked around the Queenstown Gardens,
went to the supermarket, checked a million times to see if Mum’s luggage
arrived (it didn’t), had a beer at Atlas, and got a huuuge Fergburger for
dinner. After our big day, we drank champagne in our little cabin to celebrate
my 21st! What a lovely day!!

| Happy 21st to me! |
