The morning ferry from Stewart Island was a royal pain to get to. 7:30am we were all there... well all except the Irish girls and Amy who had been enjoying the local hospitality the night before. It seems that the pub on Stewart Island buys *you* drinks at the end of the night, instead of you buying them for yourself. Strange arrangement. At 7:50am, everyone except Amy was there. Apparently Kerry had tried to wake her three times, including practically shaking her. This was a service he didn'...
Dunedin, South Island, New Zealand alanvOur first full day in New Zealand was better than our first half day in New Zealand. Actually the first half of our first full day in New Zealand was sort of like the whole of our first half day in New Zealand. Wait...what? Anyway, we started out by waking up and taking all our **** to the bus station, once we found it. Amy, Andrea, and I made it to the bus, Jesse was late and I went looking for her. I came back and Jessie was back but Amy went looking for me. Then Andrea went looking for Amy...
Dunedin, New Zealand brettski7th to 10th Feb 2008 On Thurs 7th, we got the 8am ferry back from Stewart Island to Bluff and caught the Stray bus and headed for Invercargill to pick more people up. We then headed up to Dunedin, stopping off at various places along the way. The first place we stopped at was Curio Bay where there is a petrified forest on the beach - fossilized trees. We then headed up the Caitlin coast to view some seal lions and yellow-eyed penguins. Arrived in Dunedin around 7pm and got dropped off at the ...
Dunedin, New Zealand duncanmYesterday´s journey took us through the Catlins wilderness area and the petrified forest on the beach, then a walk up to Nugget Point, so-called because the rocks out at sea look like nuggets. You've got to hand it to the Kiwis, they call a spade a spade. At Dunedin we stayed at the Leviathan, a hotel with part of the ground floor set up as a hostel. Here we cooked the remainder of the fish that I'd carried around all day then went out for a few drinks. We started off in th Captain Cook as it...
Dunedin, New Zealand shaggers... hide was right the other side of the beach so we had to negotiate both sleeping and fighting sealions to get there but once we did the binoculars were out and….nothing. Well you can’t have everything! Rather than spend the last of the light sitting in a hut, and not wanting to walk past the sealions in the dark, we headed back across the beach soaking up every minute of this beautiful place before we reached the bottom of the sand dune that we had run down ...
Dunedin, South Island, New Zealand samsonite32... kolonii tulenu (nas prvni kontakt s tuleni v NZ vubec), byl to tu samy feromon a testosteron a okolo se batolilo spousta tulenatek. Hned vedle se usidlilo hejno racku a i tady to bylo same mladatko, docela nas to pobavilo. Nakonec jsme ale usoudili, ze jmeno mysu vychazi pravdepodobne z pritomnosti nekolika desitek vodnich ptaku zvanych "shag" (=kormoran chocholaty). :-) V Dunedinu jsme se ani nestavili (navic prselo), takze jsme pokracovali rovnou na poloostrov Otago ...
Portobello, South Island, New Zealand aguas... if only to make Lorna wee when I took a picture of the signs) but it is not outdoor weather. So I had a spot of lunch and people watched for a bit, then came home. I need to get my stuff together, I am off to Queenstown tomorrow and want to leave reasonably early. I've not really been getting enough sleep, so I think I will have an early night tonight - fortunately anything that won't go into my backpack can fit into the bags under my eyes instead. So that's nice.
Dunedin, South Island, New Zealand suzloua... nochmal die Steilkueste in dem Windsturm herunterzuklettern, die Australierin, die Franzoesin, die zwei Inder und die zwei Japaner sind im Bus geblieben (nun, schon in Korea war mir aufgefallen, dass die Koreaner erstaunlich outdoor aktiv sind fuer Asiaten:-). Dies war eine kleine Breeding Kolonie, d.h. es gab einige Babys zu sehen. Bisher hatte ich nur maenliche Pelzrobben gesehen. Gruss Ralf P.S. Fun Fact Aotearoa means long white cloud and is the Maori name for New Zealand.
