The drive from Tongariro on a teeny tiny ultra-windy road was GORGEOUS. I possibly saw more sheep than live in many cities.

Kia Ora, Napier! #ProfSamLectureTour

@sundogplanets that's a lot. be sure to get some rest when you can🙏

[hallvors@oslo.town]

@sundogplanets best of luck with all of that! I hope you are met by billboard-sized posters everywhere 😆

[exlibrarykris@cloudisland.nz]

@sundogplanets weird that they have you zigzagging across the island. Hope the driving is easy.

[ibeardslee@cloudisland.nz]

@sundogplanets @cafuego not a lot of that going on at the moment.

Will you be coming down to the South Island at all?

@sundogplanets I want a T-shirt with "Sam Lawler World Tour" on the front and all your concert, uh, lecture dates on the back.

@sundogplanets If you're interested in seeing the Dominon Observatory while in Wellington, a friend of mine leases it, I'm sure he'd be happy to show you inside.

@sundogplanets If you have to drive to New Ply I think via Whanganui will be less intense than back via Taupō.
Good luck!

@sundogplanets I'm curious now about the average city sheep population.

@sundogplanets

NZ is truly a beautiful place 🙂

[boblefridge@mastodon.nz]

Stewart Island, Invercargill, Nelson, Christchurch, Tekapo... in that order.

Unfortunately there's no Dunedin gig.

Please! Send Photos from Napier!

@sundogplanets I’m looking forward to Wellington, and I hope one of Beatrice Tinsley’s relatives might come with me 😀
