... fun on the boat! I taught everyone how to play up and down the river, which has become a quick favorite among everyone! Who knew my love of games and cards would be so popular. Thank goodness, it's the only way I'm making friends ;) ha ha.<br><br>The next morning we woke up early to get a start on our adventure in Rotorua. We went hydro-zorbing. You basically jump into a giant ball filled with some water and get pushed down a ...
Hamilton, North Island, New Zealand swebbert... Raglan in an almost manic way. I don't want to go, but I feel that I should. That I should keep moving, see the rest of the island. This is itchy feet syndrome to max! Can't even stay in paradise for a few more days, gotta keep going, keep looking, so much more to see, even when you think you prolly won't find better... you might? Or you have to look anyway, right? We are traveling, after all. So I basically kick myself out of Raglan, and all the way to the other coast and Tauranga.
Raglan, North Island, New Zealand leevilporkchop... transfer/pick up arrangement, but Biddy was not organised to have done this, so we walked best part of half way almost to the summit, (I loved being out in the barreneness , I'm not sure Geoff was quite as keen), and then turned around. about 14 km in about 41/2 hrs. Many fit people seemed to be making the xing acknowledged as one of the best 1 day walks in NZ. Not a very good meal in Taupo but ...
Hamilton, North Island, New Zealand geoffbid... to do!! After debating whether to show off his surf skills Ade decided to take to the waves - think Point Break (for beginners) - to be fair he did manage to stand up on a few waves and was putting some other people to shame. Movie footage is availablwe once I work out how to download (I know same old same old). Well my internet time is coming to an end - next installment is about the most gutting day yet - so on that cliffhanger. Take care all. See you in less than a month xxx
raglan, North Island, New Zealand bec_f... the global melamine price remained stable, a steep increase in the price of urea (feedstock for melamine) has reduced the profitability of melamine manufacturing. Currently, China is the world's largest exporter of melamine, while its domestic consumption still grows by 10% per year. However, reduced profit has already caused other joint melamine ventures to be postponed there. 2007 Animal feed recalls Further information: 2007 pet food recalls and ...
Hamilton, North Island, New Zealand happysheep... hat even though it wasn't especially cold out and his pants were torn as if he'd fallen recently. He didn't look like he had two pennies to rub together and I began to protest, telling him no, thank you, it was okay I just needed to get my wallet. He quickly pulled out a handful of change, counting out two fares and insisting I accept, handing me my receipt (proof of purchase). I tripped all over my tongue in thanks, expecting him ...
Hamilton, New Zealand karsenault... you don't reply right away. Which was a reason why I didn't have a cell phone in Canada because I loathe the idea of being constantly available. Or the idea that people assume, because I have a cell on me, that I am always available. They get angry if I don't pick up the phone or answer that text in a "timely manner". Maybe I have better things to do? Maybe I'm trying to have a face to face conversation with someone? Maybe I'm living my ...
Hamilton, New Zealand karsenaultHi Everyone Well we have started our Stray bus tour!. With anticipation we turned up to the pickup point on Monday morning dreading the fact that we might be the only 2 people on the bus, when one Non English speaking person showed up and then we were told there were only 5 people on the bus we started to panic, but luckily they were on about the wrong bus and there is ...
Raglan, New Zealand jparker... for us!) so we really chose the right people to flag down. The son in law of the guy in the car was a mechanic and not only did he charge our battery, he also mended a whole host of other problems under the bonnet, and they took us back to their house for lunch. Adam (the mechanic) had just finished sorting out most of our car problems when he discovered that we had a blown head gasget! He told us we should probably sell the car too, so ...
Raglan, New Zealand noodle1505... United States, Home isn't just Colorado; it's bigger than that. We (one of the Orchard Park RAs, many of the other residents, and I) took a trip to the supermarket last night. I cannot tell you how excited I was when I found Easy Mac on the shelf. And Craisins. That was a fun one too. And I learned something, at that moment. Sometimes it's not about being proud of something. Sometimes it's about being part of something. I have been tempted more than once to claim my citizenship as that of ...
