On the road!

We travlled by car a lot which was not the greenest method of transport, but hitching with the volume of gear B packed us with, we would never get a lift!

Travelling in this manner did enable us to see so much of the country so easily, stopping to laugh at red-knecks, fornicating sheep and landslides... the mass of rock sits upon what was our intended route to Queenstown!
The south island is greener and more rugged by far...

More water = more rainfall, the souh west of the south island has experienced up to 10cm in an hour, 68cm in 24 hours, 2.9m in a month and 18.5m in a year! Fortunately we only experienced a couple of days of modest rain!
You cant trus a cloud here though!

It does make for a great landscape of valleys, rivers and waterfalls for us to oggle all year-round..
