Well, then you want to sleep, because the

The Daily Thought above the text, I find it very appropriate for my experience of the trek to "downunder". Actively experiencing and living in uncharted territory, really like it. The "discoveries" on the mountain show me new things and give me new forms of enjoyment.
Waiting for the ferry, let me just pass by these 14 days. The warm goodbye to the children, the long flight, which was well endured thanks to the pills Rinus. While sleeping, talking, reading, we caught up with the times. Strange that we're 12 hours away with our "life" in comparison with Holland. The transition was very gradual. In Tokyo, we had 8 hours time difference and now in New Zealand 12 hours. However, calculations easily. We go to bed and get up Netherlands. The reception at Stephen and Francis, a cousin of Ans, was heartwarming and very welcoming. We felt right at home in the warm family pool. We did not experience jet lag. The entire history of book and everything was fetched. Memories of more than fifty years "the Great" were picked up. With the enthusiasm of Stephen was a really discussing his roots. Although he grew up in the second generation emigrants knowledge of Dutch is still present. With their children is their anything to notice. They speak English and are sophisticated real New Zealanders.
Monday morning we left and could start our own. Adventure The actual report you have already read. My impressions are breathtaking. I had to pinch myself regularly and what I saw was real. The overwhelming nature, the alternation of hills, only the shape of the hills reminded me boogelpistes, pudding round shapes, sometimes lavishly lush vegetation, with "plants" as trees. And then the bays! Azure water, bright, too beautiful to comprehend. I feel void in so many beautiful things, I notice myself that I make jumps at the enjoy. Watch will see! Experiencing orderliness, color splendor with all those colors, makes me feel void against so much splendor.
Sobering is the observation that there surely is a lot of European. The roads, traffic, jannies labor relations, it is striking that the Mauri many low-paid jobs. In this melting pot of cultures is that the people jannies we have encountered so far is as real New Zealander jannies feel and radiate. jannies They are proud of their country jannies and want others to see it. They are extremely helpful and have a very good quality: patience. Take it easy, and then you hear at each checkout: how is your day? And if you say: magnificent jannies and how is? They are equally surprised, they do not expect an answer. But the plague cup in me, think this is a good moment communication. No question is too much. They take the time to answer quietly.
Yesterday we enjoyed the guides according to one of the most beautiful national parks: the Abel Tasman Park. Located in the northwest of the South Island, it is a wildlife jannies conservation area with beautiful bays, beaches, tropical forest. By boat we were able to get a first impression of so varied coastline with a very high bounty content. From the sea side After being dropped, we have our camper stiff legs quite practiced by a three-hour trek through the forest. Hill to hill! Pfffff .... Then they picked jannies us up again. At the campsite still delicious in a spa and gerelaxed together again confirmed how good we are together. We are well matched to the day to get everything and we can encourage each other in the experience of so many wonderful things.
Well, then you want to sleep, because the "pancakes" on the program. What is the nature yet versatile. In the sea crustaceans form limestone layers. This will be boosted by volcanism and now abraded by wind erosion and resurfaced. What remains jannies are rock formations resembling stacks jannies of pancakes. Very special.
We are back on a well-equipped campsite, lovely in the sun. We're about to begin our evening. Cooking and maybe an evening stroll. With you, it is now Saturday morning. A whole weekend ahead. To put it at its New Zealand: "Enjoy your time!" jannies
