In the spirit of Walkies, go hop on a random bus or train. You could even blindfold yourself. Ditch GPS, PLBs, SatNavs, the internet, maps. Just go forth and lose yourself in a psychedelic haze.
Use this spin wheel to decide:
Blindfolder: Justin. Blindfolded: Iliya, Connor, Chris, Patrick, Jack, Kirstin, Zita, Tommy.
In a photo lost to the depths of time, 9 VUWTC members boarded the randomly selected 29 Southgate bus, 8 of whom were blindfolded. From there, the sky darkened, time and space broke down, new suburbs were explored, and chaos erupted.
Radio towers were climbed. Two anonymous participants skinny dipped in Island Bay. Patrick became a wizard, with an ever-growing beer can staff. The Pines were visited. Cliffs were scaled. Yeet was yelled. A cone farting band was formed in Lyall Bay, to the delight of locals. Lyall Bay Beach Play Area was ranked 6/10. The same two anonymous members were kicked out of PAK'nSAVE Kilbirnie for drinking inside. Home was most definitely not found.
