KIA ORA! NEW ZEALAND PARADISE!
(8 - 22 June 1999, Auckland - Christchurch, NZ)
This is me hopping on a 4-Wheel Drive bike in Nelson. A once-in-a-lifetime
opportunity to catch the local natural beauty, at the same time burning rubber
on a powerful machine... Only in NZ...
The 4 of us in the same tourgroup had the chance to bottle feed baby
lambs at a farmshow. Someone was lucky enough to get the runt of the litter...
SO KYOOT!!
A family
pic at Whakarewarewa with the local Maoris, who gave a splendid show of their
culture. <I think I would have made a decent, or barely-decent rather, Maori,
what say you? The "petite" lass on the extreme left seemed to think so...>
My Mum
and Dad posing in front of a helicopter-ride office.
My parents again, this time posing with a lemon tree... After this
photograph was taken, the fruit farm reported the sudden "disappearance" of
the very same tree... Hmmm, should we classify this under the X-Files, Scully? I think not...
