In the centre of new zealand there is a little area known as whangamomona that claimed independance 20 years ago. We got our passports stamped when we entered at the local hotel. very bizarre. We also saw mount doom from the lord of the rings films and we jumped out of a plane at 12000ft. [View Full Entry]

horrible weather. we thought we were back in ireland!
there are no roads to abel tasman so you have to get a boat. we travelled up the coast on a sea shuttle and were dumped off the boat to walk back for a few hours. we were in the middle of nowhere with pretty much no one else about. very peaceful and quiet. [View Full Entry]

nice view.
The reason to go to Kaikoura is to see whales and dolphins. We would have gone for the views alone. Camping in blazing sunshine beside the pacific and surrounded by snow capped mountains at the same time! crazy beautiful. [View Full Entry]

On the boat to Stewart Island
Mayday, Mayday

before the ducks came running over!
We camped again even though the nights here are extreemly cold. For some reason all the campsites we stay in have ducks running about. They are very cute but do try to get into your car and eat your food. Spent a quick day in Wellinton and then got the boat to the south island. We plan to travel in the south island for a month and to go back to the north for a week or so. [View Full Entry]
