we got woken up by the park ranger today. total scene out of a romantic comedy. star crossed lovers pass out in station wagon with feet hanging out of the trunk. ranger wakes up couple and one says he’s a tourist and the other says ‘man can’t control me’. we drove a couple of hours north of auckland to get away from the family scene and catch some sun. we had a wonderful meal at a thai restuarnt and was so even bold to bring the unfisihed bottle of wine to bring to the beach. too bad it was also pitch dark by the time we got to the beach and snuggle in family sleeping bags. the moon was still quite bright and we talk about ourselves again. i told her what happen in the lords of the rings because she doesn’t want to watch the rest of the series. it was windy and a bit chilly but our internal flames keep us alive in the moment. good memories were being made and i relved in it. to taste the bitter sweet liliac wine of life in the raw chill of a glorious moonlight.
