i had my work christmas lunch today on waiheke. it was the funniest one i’ve ever been to.
it was a 15 minute walk from the ferry to the posh winery for lunch. 15 minutes if you go the right way that is.
unfortunately the person who organised it took us the wrong way and 45 minutes later of going up and down steep hills, we still weren’t there! so we asked a dog walker who told us we’re gone the wrong way almost at the start of our walk and would need to retrace our steps back 45 minutes! So instead we ran sneakily across a posh person’s garden, climbed through an olive grove and emerged in a rockery by a road. we called the vineyard who (eventually) sent a 6 seater car to pick all 8 of us up.
but unfortunately the car got the handbrake stuck on! luckily i was able to release it and all was well. we got to the restaurant about the same time as our final two colleagues who left the office an hour later than we did!
anyway, much fun was had by all, and there was a good secret santa with the yankee swap feature which is all the rage these days
