So i'm one month in, and one month to go. It's certainly going to be a game of 2 halves. First = party. 2nd = culture (+ party). The rugby was great, the home team won. You can't beat a good live-at-the-game atmosphere.
Next, in Kaikoura, I went whale watching. We saw 3 sperm whales, and the Classic sight of when they dive down and give a magnificent view of their tails. I managed a couple of pics which I am dead proud of.
Now back in Wellington in North Island, headed back to the very top - Cape Reinga - for a spot of sand-boarding. After that it's time to chill in Hamilton for a couple of weeks. One last 'fix' - Ju and Ki have bought a motorbike so i'll don some padding and go for a spin hopefully! ...Then the Big Trip Home. Take cover I'm full of beans! Woohoo!!
