DAY 37. North to Picton

Fri, 2 Dec 2016 | By joyaroundtheworld | Views [162]

We filled up on gas and headed out of Haast. We drove for an hour or two and then down a gravel road to the Fox Glacier. The trail to the lookout wasn't long and the view wasn't as I expected. The glacier was still a long ways off and we didn't really ... Read more >

DAY 36. A Tree & Blue Water

Thu, 1 Dec 2016 | By joyaroundtheworld | Views [141]

In the morning, I dropped Ryan off at the mountain bike shop and I went to a laundry mat so that we would have clean clothes. I also bought groceries and cleaned out the car. Ryan spent the morning downhill biking at the Queenstown Bike Park "shredding ... Read more >

Hey ihr Lieben, gestern, also am letzten Novembertag, waren wir im wunderschönen, weitläufigen Rosengarten der Hamilton Gardens. Zuvor haben wir uns die Gewächshäuser angesehen, die in Tropenhaus und Kakteenhaus unterteilt sind.... Read more >

DAY 35. The Sound!

Wed, 30 Nov 2016 | By joyaroundtheworld | Views [142]

We got up around 7am, packed up and drove, once again, to the Milford Sound. It was going to be a perfect sunny day for a fjord cruise. We were a bit early so we picked up coffee and a small breakfast. The boardwalk to the cruise terminal went around ... Read more >

DAY 34. Not Quite Enough Petrol

Tue, 29 Nov 2016 | By joyaroundtheworld | Views [249]

We attempted to wake up early for low tide so that we could visit the Cathedral Caves at the opportune time. At the car park, we paid the $10 fee and walked through the woods down to the windy beach. The sea was active that morning so even though it ... Read more >

DAY 33. Sheep!!!

Mon, 28 Nov 2016 | By joyaroundtheworld | Views [155]

We made breakfast and headed for Baldwin Street, which is the steepest street in the world. On the way to it, we saw a few other notably steep streets but once we got to Baldwin, it was on another level. It was crazy steep! I didn't dare drive up it ... Read more >

Der erste Kiwi und ein bisschen Meer

Wir sind noch immer auf der Suche nach einem geeigneten Campervan und hoffen in den nächsten Tagen fündig zu werden. Gestern haben wir mit Almaz und Dominik einen kleinen Ausflug unternommen. Zunächst haben wir an einer Kiwi-Auswilderungsveranstaltung ... Read more >

DAY 32. Back to Civilization & Heat

Sun, 27 Nov 2016 | By joyaroundtheworld | Views [162]

We woke up cold and tired and wondered why the tent's ceiling was sagging lower than normal. Once we looked outside, we saw about three inches of soggy, wet snow on the ground. And here we thought we were getting away from the cold and snowy AK. We had ... Read more >

DAY 31. The Alaskans Find Snow

Sat, 26 Nov 2016 | By joyaroundtheworld | Views [199]

It was tough leaving our bunks in the morning but we managed to. We made breakfast and put on our not-so-dry gear. We noticed from the deck of the hut (which by the way, looked out onto a big, pretty valley), that the rain was mixed with snow. We set ... Read more >

DAY 30. The Rise of the Monsoon

Fri, 25 Nov 2016 | By joyaroundtheworld | Views [177]

We packed up our things and rushed to Countdown to get food for our bus rides and hike. There was hardly time to park our car, pack the food, and speed walk down to the transport's office and we weren't able to get a proper breakfast. We finally took ... Read more >

DAY 29. Queenstown!

Thu, 24 Nov 2016 | By joyaroundtheworld | Views [266]

I didn't sleep well because of the anticipation of Ryan's arrival. I woke up at 3:30, laid in bed, and took a shower at the hostel. I was out the door at 6:00 and walked to my car. I made the drive towards the airport as early as I could to beat morning ... Read more >

DAY 28. One More Wake Up

Wed, 23 Nov 2016 | By joyaroundtheworld | Views [148]

I woke up well rested and enjoyed coffee with Alison and David. Alison left shortly after for Auckland and I began to organize and pack everything up that had been scattered about in my car. It was a long process but somehow I made it all work. It was ... Read more >
