Tudor Lodge Motel Hamilton

... you are with to see who can make it down the hill first. You don't really have to race... but it's more fun if you do! My driving skills are a bit rusty because I "accidentally" knocked Jamie off the path and into the side gravel... okay, maybe it was on purpose because I didn't want to get passed... either way luging was definitely a great time! At the luge we had an amazing lunch on the top of hill overlooking the lake. The ...

... geben...was auch immer das bedeuten mag. Ich besuche einen recht imposanten Wasserfall in der Naehe, der 55 meter tief ueber eine Klippe stuerzt. Ansonsten Surferspotting oder einfach nur am absoluten Traumstrand sitzten den Blick von Rechts nach Links entlang des kilometerlangen Strandes wandern lassen und die Weiterreise nach Chile organisieren...

... to go with) millions of tiny glowing insects of the roof of an otherwise pitch black cave. Then a trip through another cave with many stalactites and the bones of long dead animals. A great trip made with the company called Spellbound. Very good accommodation at the Hotel Ibis in Hamilton on the way to the Coromandel. Great selection of restaurants in the Victoria St area, we had a lovely Thai meal.

This morning, I woke up at about 10am and ate some breakfast. During breakfast, Andy and I had a discussion about whether we should borrow the car again to go to Raglan (which is about at 3 hour drive away) or drive to the Mount (which was only 20 minutes away). After finishing breakfast, we checked the surf conditions online at each location. Raglan was the only place that had decent waves that day so mother nature made the decision for us. We got in ...

... Anying Biologic Technology[32] as well as in crystalline form in the kidneys and in urine of affected animals.[33] Further vegetable protein imported from China was later implicated. In April 2007, The New York Times reported that the addition of "melamine scrap" into fish and livestock feed to give the false appearance of a higher level of protein was an "open secret" in many parts of mainland China, reporting that this melamine scrap was being ...

... to thank him again and held out my hand. He moved the beer in his and kissed mine, telling me I had made his evening. I wanted to buy him another beer but apparently the Hamilton buses are BYOB and I left mine at home! More proof that the cliche is true and there really is no point in judging a book by it's cover and random acts of kindness really do make a difference in someone's day. xox K (Yes, yes, I'm still working on the pics!!)

... with you/spend time with you. And it irks me that the person on the sending end of the text doesn't have the patience to send a text and not care when they get a reply. Why does everything have to be Right This Minute!! ? Technology is breeding a culture of impatient, anti-social, co-dependent lemmings and that is a scary fact. Scary, scary, scary. Anyway, this rant isn't anything new or anything most of you haven't heard from me before ...

... The only depressing bit is everyone else seems to be away for between 1 & 2 years which is making out 3 months look slightly lame. Tonight we have all been out for good old fish and trips and Andy is currently playing poker and drinking beer so you can see the way this trip will be going . We are then off outside to have a go on the flying fox or Zip line as we would ...

... for about an hour, and I swear there were about a thousand cows. It was ridiculous. We got to Hamilton and I was dropped off at a little house called J's Backpackers, since I still do not have a place to permanently stay (which is extremely stressful, more stressful than I had imagined). I would compare it to a bed and breakfast in the U.S. except you actually live in a room with other people. For example, I am sharing my room of 2 sets of bunk beds, with 2 ...

... the first time in five months, I can admit to myself that I miss America. Not just Colorado this time, either - I miss the United States of America. I can't say exactly what it is that I miss. It's not this freedom-of-speech business; they have that in a lot of countries. And with all the drama of elections coming up, it's not really Democracy either. We all know how well it's working in the US right now, at least. It's more a feeling than an idea; maybe a feeling I'll be able to pin down ...
