<content xml:lang="en" type="html"><h2>What was your favorite part of your last vacation?</h2> | ||
<p>My favourite part of my last vacation <sup class="footnote-ref"><a href="https://www.adrianparker.com/posts/Favourite-Part-Of-Last-Vaction/#fn1" id="fnref1">[1]</a></sup> was going on a diving trip to the Mercury Islands, off the coast of Whitianga.</p> | ||
<p>Not just because they were two great dives - best I've had in New Zealand by far, with masses of demoiselle<sup class="footnote-ref"><a href="https://www.adrianparker.com/posts/Favourite-Part-Of-Last-Vaction/#fn2" id="fnref2">[2]</a></sup>, moray eels, a crayfish, a great buddy, funny and friendly crew, and interesting sites.</p> | ||
<p>The reason this day was my favourite is because I went on a dive trip with people I love.</p> | ||
<p>Sure, the other three snorkelled, while I dived, but that didn't matter at all.</p> | ||
<p>It was seeing them happy, being happy with them, and having us all together, out there on the boat, in the real world, doing this adventurous thing, doing something I love to do, in a far flung spot, with other people who also love those things.</p> | ||
<p>It was the togetherness that made it special, combined with the activity itself.</p> | ||
<p>Getting out on the water is good.</p> | ||
<p>Getting out on the water with my loved ones is fantastic.</p> | ||
