Nathan's road trip to Christchurch

---

So anyway, I went to leave Rotorua and the hung-over boys from the stag do.

They went back to Auckland to truly punish Jonny for deciding to get married.

I meanwhile headed south to drop of the KIWI car to the lovely folks at KIWI Christchurch.

Here's some stuff that I saw.

Photos

Lake Taupo
Beautiful Lake Taupo ... the first stop after leaving Rotorua

National Park Sunset
While driving thru National Park I saw this beauty sunset, so I pulled over and took a photo of it.

Taihape Turn Off
As you can see, I had a big decision when I got to Taihape ... Sorry Napier, but I chose to head for Palmerston North

Bulls
Me in Bulls next to an ATM

Nath Ben
Me and Ben Lauchlan on a quick visit that I made to his place. I got invited to his wedding on October 15th. Gonna fly down to Wellington for it ... that'll be wicked!

Nath Ladyman's
This is the Ladyman clan who I stayed with in Wellington ... Camille, Hannah, Olivia and Alex

Me in Wellington
Me outside the Beehive ... no Vengaboys jokes please! As I said already, I love the hat!

Waiting to Board
Here I am waiting in line to board the interislander in Wellington ... Central Wellington and the Cake Tin in the background

Driving on
This is me driving onboard the Arahura while taking a photo ... extreme danger doing those two at the same time ... once on the Arahura will take me to Picton at the top of the Sth sland ... Neat

The Car
All alone in the Arahura

Departing Wellington
That big Cake Tin looking thing in the background, that's the Cake Tin

Marlborough Sounds
Entering the Sounds ... very beautiful even though it was crap weather ... Had dolphins swimming alongside the boat too which was cool

Marlborough Sounds 2
It was beautiful, then I saw Picton

Getting off at Picton
This is me driving off the Arahura in Picton, while driving and photographing, in the wet ... "idiot!"

Picton History
This is where Paul, Timmy P, Ryan and I parked up in our campervan to cook the Mussels we got from Abel Tasman that day (Feb I think)

Beauty Clouds
These cloufs were beauty ... better in real life, but a photo captures part of the beauty ... This is halfway between Blenheim and Kaikoura

Kairkoura sign
It got dark just before I got into Kaikoura

Me in Kaikoura
Self take by the Kaikoura sign

Me in Christchurch
I got some Russian tourists to take this Photo .. shortly after I arrived in Christchurch after driving 1100kms in 2 days ... we have a beautiful country and I listened to about 20-30 albums on the trip which was great!

Me outside CHC Accomadation
This is where I stayed in Christchurch ... it was mint! (I think that woman is checking out my ass)

Nath Bondy
This is Bondy who I work with now that we are KIWI for local Christchurch promotions. Same thing applies for Bondy, except he likes girls

Me outside Addington Raceway
Addington raceway ... neat!

Laura Nath Shellee
This is Laura and Shellee who I used to work with when we were Channel Z. Boys, they're hot, and single I think. Email me for more. After that I got on a plane and flew back to Auckland for work the next day. Neat!
