The Death of Betty White

NEW ZEALAND | Sat, 24 Jan 2015 | By wtarmstrong | Views [537] | Comments [1]

I’ve always thought that American auto makers benefit greatly from American rental car companies. I’ve never known anyone who actually owns a Chevrolet Sonic or Buick Verano (I don’t think such models even merit TV commercials). Yet ... Read more >

Ferries, Busses, Kayaks, and Campervans

NEW ZEALAND | Tue, 11 Feb 2014 | By elizabethkfmurphy | Views [530]

I think that moving between islands in New Zealand should be done the classic way, by ferry. We didn't even look in to flights because why not take the ferry? (I'm sure there are many good reasons based on how you are planning your trip, but it worked ... Read more >

Kayaking in the Abel Tasman area

NEW ZEALAND | Tue, 4 Feb 2014 | By clare-tamea | Views [529]

Picture this - brilliant blue seas, perfect half moons of golden sand backed by vibrant green forest, the gentle slap of waves on canoe and paddle - this is kayaking in the sub-tropical national park of Abel Tasman, at the top of New Zealand's South ... Read more >

完美的一天 [Observation Beach]

NEW ZEALAND | Tue, 5 Jan 2010 | By ying | Views [4975]

今天是在Abel Tasman海岸划船的第三天,比起昨天要顺利多了,可能是熟能生巧吧。 今天也是个充满许多生平的第一次的一天:第一次力战激流,第一次沙滩瑜伽,第一次在潮落的浅滩上掰生蚝,第一次在日落后迅速降温的营地生火煮饭,还有第一次有在没有月亮的夜里仰望着繁星漫天。 上午Torrent Bay涨潮时我们趁水位高把皮艇托下了水,没想到因为是涨潮时间,潮水直往泻湖里灌。我们的小船逆潮而上,根本不是潮水的对手,划了半天,胳膊都酸了,但却跟没动一样在原地踏步。这样下去可不行,我只好狠下心一咬牙拼了老命埋头苦干的用力划起来,就当快划爬下的时候,回头一看,哟,居然已经冲出激流啦~~~把我给高兴的! ...

出师不利 [Sandfly Bay]

NEW ZEALAND | Mon, 4 Jan 2010 | By ying | Views [9921]

今天是在海岸kayaking的第2天,昨天下雨所以船也没划成,今天一早醒来,太阳已经晒得帐篷暖洋洋的了,落差还真大啊。新西兰就是这样,太阳晒着时觉得热,没晒到时又觉得凉! 第一次在野外露营的感觉还不错,晚上醒了几次,一次是涨潮时浪花声把我给吵醒了,还有几次是热了冷了醒来调整了一下睡袋。总体来说,露营没有我起初想象中的那么复杂,除了用小气炉做饭比较麻烦、比较慢,其他的一切都可以接受。 我很喜欢这种不能从陆地到达,只有小船可以停靠的海滩,这样的露营让我能以很原始的方式接近大自然。 吃完早餐,我们第一次在没有指导员的帮助下启航了。 ... Read more >

天有不测风云 [Abel Tasman - Mosquito Bay]

NEW ZEALAND | Sun, 3 Jan 2010 | By ying | Views [5022]

行程简要: 1.午后乘快艇从Marahau到Mosquito Bay 2.夜露营Mosquito Bay 第一次露营,就挑战难度高的沙滩露营,我总遇到这种赶鸭子上阵事! Sea kayaking -- 海上双人划,第一次尝试的我只好大着胆子sink or swim! Literally. 接下来的4天,我们将划着船,带着所有四天需要的吃的、穿的、用的,每天沿着海湾Kayaking,晚上到不同的沙滩搭帐篷,生火煮吃的。沿路的营地有好几个连饮用水都没有,要喝水就得自带瓶装水,要不就自己烧水吧。这种艰巨的条件对我这种没出过城门的人无疑是次巨大的挑战,不过还好有TOM和其它经验丰富的人带着,才不至于没吃没喝“瓜稀稀”的看着别人了干瞪眼了。 ...
