Can't leave NZ with out ....

...at least one more chincie tourist attraction. And boy did we save us a good one. We visited the sheep farm outside Matamata that was used for the set of Hobbiton in the LoTRs movies. Pictured above is the view from Bagg End, with pond, large tree, and "party field". Pretty cool actually.

Jaws...now in English

We just had the greatest two days. We went hiking into abel tasmen on the north coast of the south island. Stayed overnight on a hostel located on a boat. Jumping off the roof of the boat into the water was mandatory, and bre, bryant and myself were more than terrified to join in. It only took us about 40 minutes to convince ourselves that we would not die...and as evident by this posting, at least you know that I am still alive. Unless, of course, brad is ghost texting this in. But due to the absence of chatter about female bits, you can guarantee that it is just me.

The next morning we got up bright and early, and kayaked all day along the coast of abel tasmen. We flipped at one point, and were able to right ourselves and when we popped back up there was a seal on top of the kayak. and a sea of unicorns and rainbows behind us.

Shenanigans were afoot at the end of our journey, but that is a story for another time...

see y'all soon!

WTF NZ?

Ok, I have been pretty critical of the NZ them last few days. They nickel and dime you for Internet access, and they have no idea what drip coffee is. BUT they have THIS. It is pretty much what it says. NZ$5 which is about $4(US). A bargin! So this entry is mixed, it's a WTFNZ? and "heart"UNZ.

iPhone Pictures

Here's are some pictures I've taken with my iPhone.

I ordered a tea (for me) and a milk (for Bre). I think she was hoping for a whole glass
