... and Chile. It could be finding lost civilization ruins that being Machu Pichu of the Incas in Peru or the Mayans and Aztecs in Central America. It could be the sudden urge I have to learn Spanish and become fluent in it, seeing that all countries I will be visiting speak Spanish as their first language apart from Brazil. Did I mention the surf? &#8230;. Wow what an amazing continent. <br><br>People ask me," how much will it ...

... already begun. Changes in arctic climate will also affect the rest of the world through increased global warming and rising sea levels (Butler). Duane Smith lives in Inuvik, well above the Arctic Circle, on the Mackenzie River delta in Canada's Northwest Territories. He says that our world is increasingly changing. The traditional knowledge of how the world works, passed down from generation to ...

... of my man stories as well. We take turns cooking dinner each night. Sunday is my night. So far I have made; enchiladas, tacos, breakfast for dinner (eggs, pancakes, bacon), and fettucine alfredo (which I must say turned out EXCELLENT, being that I had never made it before).... and the flatties have been quite impressed. I think that I am probably the best cook in the house even. (GASP!) I know... weird, aye? This could also be that they make things that I have ...

... at the house at 3.30ish and helped a little with the horses, Merv decided to stand on my foot so that was nice, but luckily it was stand and not stomp... Anne and Jane made a lovely sausage casserole for dinner and we watched the show Anne and I are hooked on, So you think you can dance Australia. Saturday 12th April: Up early and gardened until around 2.30pm. Didn't do anything during the afternoon really and then our favourite guy was ...

... a visiter le Te Papa museum, le plus beau musee de NZ d'apres les locaux, tres varie et tres instructif : les maoris, les colons (pahekas), la faune, la meteorologie, l'art, les relation inter-culturelles, la tectonique, tout y passe !!

... from Texas who were on the same flight and headed down under, which made things a lot less scary. As for the flight, 12 hours went by surprisingly well. I wouldn't necessarily say they went by fast, but thanks to taking a Valium before I got onto the plane, and some Nyquil around "bed time", I did very well. The flight crew was very nice, and all very good-looking. I was lucky to sit by a nice couple from the Bay Area who were coming to NZ for vacation to do ...

... R.F.E, even on the timesheets that we send back to Auckland.) Palmerston North sucked as a turf. We asked the people at the i-Site (visitor centre thingy) for the map and the areas with different classes (higher, middle, lower - and of course we always aimed for the lower because they are SO much nicer), and apparently, poor people in Palmerston North own sailing boats. By luck, I managed to get three signups (all 10s) on ...

After leaving Napier we headed south past Hastings and Havelock North to look at Maraetotara Falls, that were a devil to find, before heading down to Palmerston on SH2. However, we decided to make a 100km detour on the SH52 to visit Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateatur ipukakapikimaungahoro nukapokaiwhenuakitanatahu - the hill with the world's longest place name. It roughly translates as 'the hill where Tamatea ...

... spa not doing very much and maybe a trip to the pub. Then came the next day and I still did not leave. I was going to be on the only passenger on Vino's bus so he persuaded me it would be a really good idea to stay another day in the park so he could have a day off. So Deano, Vino and I went off to play on bush buggies. That night Deano took me out for dinner in a different pub in the village (there are only 3 pubs) where amazingly I actually ...

... to keep on walking - luckily her knee held! After a couple more waterfall jumps and a fair amount of caving we came to the glowworms - they were spectacular! They look like tiny green stars dotted in the nights sky, except they are only a few feet above your head! The worm itself is about 2 inches long and glows at one end to attract its prey (normally any type of flying insect). The worm sets up dozens of mucus-covered strands, which hang down from the cave roof like ...
