As you can probably tell from the subject of this photo, and my slow-down of posting in general, not a whole lot is going on lately. We have been preparing for our trip to the South Island by working a lot and not doing much else. Luckily the time is nearing. (We leave Auckland in May)
This next week, Beth and I are taking a trip to the Northland (NZ north of Auckland). We leave in the morning, and are excited to finally get up there. I should have a lot of good Photos when we get back.
As for the photo above, I tried to play Scrabble by myself, making only Maori words. It is very hard as they only use a few letters, and they use some of them (notably the A) a lot. It was hard to find words with only one A in them.
You should totally make a Maori scrabble game and sell it on ebay. It would be the same as normal scrabble but have like 50 As. It could also come standard with a blow up opponent so you would never have to play alone.
ADMIRABLE!!! (That word would *not* work well on your board. ) You always were one to take new ground! I love that about you! Do you think one-person Maori Scrabble might be a first? Have an awesome trip in the Northland. Will look forward to photos! XOXOXO
What fun to see you using the Scrabble board in this way. You’re right about there being a lot of “A’s.” Enjoy your trip to the Northland. Your experience on the North Island has been so amazing. Who knows what lies is store on the South Island.
