Here's the deal. I'm writing another diary of the event, but it'll be saved onto my computer. When I get the chance, I WILL post what I've gotten so far up here, much the same as with GP Melbourne. It all depends on internet capabilities and whether the NZ technology hasn't fight with my AUSSIE tech, sweet!
I'm looking the most forward to the entirely new blanket of players, with new accents and groups of people they hang with and all that. It's funny that all the previous travelling I've done for Magic has been within Australia, so I'm used to "just a different part of Aus", not "actually a different country."
Keep yourselves posted!
Day 0 aka “We’re not even there!”
5:45am
The day begins at 5.45am when I wake up early for work. Fun times.

We’re behind the counter for a few hours, til 1pm. Then we’ve got the mad fun job of running around, getting bags, and then public transport to Sydney’s International airport.

At the airport, but knocked back! Turns out our flight is the next one, and we’ve tried to board at 4pm instead of 6pm. There goes my ability to account for “local time difference” accurately.

Begin writing the above, and plan to continue it for the next few days, to create yet another Magic travel diary for GP Auckland. That makes a proper diary of both GP events in the Aus-Zealiand area this year. Don’t look that up in your Geography books, I just made it up.

Day plans? Arrive and hop a taxi to the sweet hotel to meet
with fellow teammates Ammonium and JDNoice. Sleep a lot. Possibly. More likely
will become “test a lot, until the wee hours of the morning. Do Grinders in a
rat-faced mood all day.”
At the moment I have enough points for one bye, same for
JDNoice. Ammonium kicked GPT Gosford in the jewels and has the proper
compliment of three byes.
I have ,for light reading on my flight, “The crying of lot
49” and “Doctor Who Magazine; issue 451.” There’s a big dinosaur on the front,
so who cares what’s actually inside? RRAWR!
